About us

• Founded in 1947 and started out by repairing war-damaged doors and apertures, along with contracts from the British services in Malta and in Libya, where a showroom was eventually set up.
• George Galea and his brothers Louis and Joseph, founded the company and were followed into the business by younger brothers Vincent and Albert.
• 60’s: the brothers were joined by Maurice de Giorgio who brought in new products and expertise to the company.
• Contract License granted from Gomme Industries of the famous G Plan brand to manufacture furniture under the G Plan brand. Several hotel guest room contracts won.
• The product range continued to expand introducing mattresses and Venetian blinds to the portfolio.
• 70’s: another license agreement signed to manufacture Reprodux furniture.
• 90’s: a dip in the manufacturing sector as the demand for locally manufactured furniture was under threat from imports. The company moved back to commercial and marine contracts and bespoke commissions.
• The company then started importing some of the best brands of furniture from Europe.
• 2008 saw the company move from its iconic showroom in Sliema to a new, larger state of the art showroom in Qormi.
• The firm is today run by Sebastian de Giorgio, the grandson of Maurice de Giorgio.
• The original Board of Directors comprised of initially the Galea brothers and Mr. Maurice de Giorgio. It saw several changes over the years.
• Joinwell’s directors are backed up by a solid team of qualified and experienced designers, quality carpenters, logistic professionals and expert fitters, all contributing to the success of the Joinwell story.

February 2017 saw the launch of our new Kitchen display by Hacker Kitchens from Germany.

Clients flocked in to see the new range of kitchens and meet with Andreas Moller, Export sales Manager for Häcker in Germany, who took clients around on a tour of the new displays. “I am very happy to see our kitchens nicely presented in the Joinwell showroom. The models which are displayed are a perfect selection of materials and styles”, Mr. Moller explains. “Luckily we are using our proven PUResist bonding technology which assures high quality for years to come even in countries with high temperatures and high humidity like Malta”, continues Mr. Moller. “We are very happy that now Joinwell represents our brand in Malta”.

Mr Martin Galea, Joinwell’s Managing Director, was quite pleased with the turnout. “We are very happy with the response – we were able to show our new German brand Häcker as well as five new displays of Arrex Cucine, a brand we have been representing for 9 years. The added choice means that we now have a real kitchen centre which can offer exactly what our customers want at the right price.’

Prosciutto and Parmeggiano accompanied by a selection of wines and Prosecco were flowing throughout the day while clients were assisted with designs for their new kitchens.
