Mediterranean Bank has always been committed to support the local community and, in line with this commitment, is proud to have supported the local farmers association (Assoċjazzjoni tal-Bdiewa) by sponsoring the Farmers General Meeting which was held on Friday 31^st July at St Agatha’s College in Rabat.


The meeting, which was attended by over one thousand farmers, was convened to hand out certificates and licences and also to discuss a number of important issues to the farming community such as the future of the wholesale vegetable market and EU funding. During his intervention, the Hon. Roderick Galdes, Parliamentary Secretary for Agriculture and Fisheries, stressed the importance of farmers cooperating amongst themselves. The benefits of such cooperation include enabling farmers to optimise the supply of produce and improve the agricultural industry through EU funding.

Ray Calleja, Head of Consumer Banking, also addressed the audience saying that Mediterranean Bank was making a token donation to the Association. He also mentioned the products and services that Mediterranean Bank, now the third largest bank in Malta, is able to offer the members in terms of savings, wealth management and foreign exchange. Mr Calleja reminded those present where the Bank’s branches are located and promised them excellent customer service which has become synonymous with Mediterranean Bank through its well trained and courteous staff.
