Moving on to the next generation…

On the occasion of the visit of Their Royal Highnesses, The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, the British High Commissioner H.E. Ms Katherine Ward and Mr Philippe Martineau, hosted a memorable garden reception at Villa de Giorgio in Naxxar, on Wednesday 9th October 2024.

Mr Christian Magro and Mrs Joanna Mercieca Magro, CEO of the Magro Group of Companies and Managing Director of Savina Creations Ltd respectively, had the honour to be invited to this exclusive event.

HRH Prince Edward visited the Savina display table and showed keen interest in the various artisan products on display. The Savina Brand was not new to Prince Edward as he was already mindful of the pledge that The Magro Family had made to the late Prince Philip, and was looking forward to sampling the products.

Back in November 2005, HRH Price Philip had visited the Magro Food Village and the Magro family had pledged to annually present jars of succulent, Maltese fruit in spiced rum syrup to HRH.

This commemorative pledge has now been passed on by the “new” Magro generation to the new Duke of Edinburgh, Price Edward.

Distinguished guests, present at their Royal Highnesses visit, were also treated to an array of exquisite Savina gourmet delicacies.
