The tomato season at the Magro plant in Xewkija is about to get underway with the machinery and factory busy awaiting the first truckloads of tomatoes to arrive!

Magro Bros said that over a hundred and fifty employees are involved in one way or another to commence the harvesting season. Paperwork, maintenance on various, glimmering, stainless steel machinery is in check, trucks and tents are set up to welcome and weigh the red fruits and visits to local farmers ensures that the plants meet the strict quality control adhered to by the company.

The factory will now be operating around the clock with rivers of tomatoes making their way to their appropriate cans – “some will be chopped into pulp chunks, others made into juice and sauces and yet others will be used in the production of Malta’s favourite brand – Three Hills Kunserva.”

Magro Brothers invite the public to join them during this special time. Factory tours are available, whereby qualified tour guides will give demonstrations of the entire tomato process – a tour which will be enjoyed by young and old alike.

Booking in advance is highly recommended. To book your tour please contact Magro Bros on Freephone 8007 5533 or email on visits@magro.com.mt.
