The original parent company was founded in 1918 by the late Joseph Borg, who was one of the first pioneers to commence trade in the cold storage business, storing frozen meats and other food products.

The main activity of the company is dealing in fresh & frozen foodstuffs. Supplies are acquired both through imports and local purchases. The products purchased are then sold to the catering, wholesale and retail trade, delivered by a fleet of refrigerated trucks.

The company presently operates from Pinto Cold Stores.

Primary imports are frozen products such as meats, poultry, fish, seafood, vegetables, fruits, prepared foods, ready-to-eat meals as well as fresh beef/lamb/pork, dairy products and wine.

The customer base includes most top hotels, restaurants and retail outlets. The company also trades in contract catering to government departments and hospitals and caters for military, cruise and cargo ship requirements.
