President on official visit to Farsons Brewery

The President of Malta, George Vella and his wife Miriam, last week paid an official visit to the Farsons Brewery in Mriehel.

Vella and his wife were welcomed by Chairman, Louis A. Farrugia, CEO Norman Aquilina, Executive Director Michael Farrugia, Company Secretary Antoinette Caruana and the group’s HR manger. After a brief meeting with the senior management team, they were presented with a donation of €25,000 for this year’s l-Istrina campaign in the presence of management and employees.

In a brief address the President thanked the management and employees for their donation to this year’s l-Istrina campaign. He also thanked the management for the invitation to visit such an important and successful enterprise. “The continued success of this company is in itself proof of the foresight, the professionalism and the high level of management," he said.

Vella also praised the strong sense of social responsibility that the company has always shown and is still showing.

“Our Group is strongly committed to its corporate social responsibility and our employees have always responded positively and generously to calls for help,” Farrugia said.

The President and his wife were then given a guided tour around the brewery, taking the opportunity to meet with several employees at their workplace.
