Polidano Group celebrated the 25th Anniversary of Polidano Brothers Ltd. at the Monte Kristo Wine Vaults on 22 June.

His Grace the Archbishop of Malta, Mons. Paul Cremona O.P. visited the Polidano Group offices at Hal Farrug. His Grace also toured the various plants where he met with the employees at their place of work. Following the tour, His Grace unveiled a commemorative plaque in the office building.

The brothers Charles and Paul Polidano, entered the construction industry under the company name of Polidano Brothers in 1982 with the launch of a small construction firm capable of handling modest projects. The enterprising brothers realized, even in those early days that the future lay in providing mechanically oriented services to a burgeoning construction industry. In sharp contrast to what was happening on the international scene, most construction work in Malta was still performed manually until the mid 80’s.

With several major infrastructure projects about to come on stream, the strategy of introducing most cost effective, labour-saving heavy equipment made good business sense. This strategy quickly earned the industry’s trust and respect, including the finest and most discerning architectural firms and many international companies who chose Polidano Brothers Ltd. as their working partners for projects in Malta. One major project followed another, culminating in national infrastructure feats that set the benchmark for others to match.

His Grace the Archbishop also celebrated a mass of thanksgiving for all the Polidano Group employees and guests in the new Arena of the Monte Kristo Estate. This was followed by a reception at the Monte Kristo Wine Vaults attended by all the group employees and distinguished guests.
