Established in Gibraltar by Marcus Henry Bland in 1810, MH Bland & Co Ltd has a long and unrivalled history and tradition in maritime commerce. Today, this heritage is firmly upheld alongside a vision of the future as the company’s spheres of activity grow within the marine and tourism industries.
The present Chairman John A. Gaggero and his brother, Deputy Chairman George Gaggero along with fellow Directors, Clive A. Moberley and Ian Penfold have steered the company through a dynamic development programme that has seen the expansion of its activities.
No other local company is able to offer the same high standards or portfolio of in-house expertise and services expected by today’s customers.
In order to ensure that our diverse range of assets meet the high standards expected, the Group operates an ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management System and as a fundamental ingredient to our commitment to self-improvement, employs a full-time HSSE & Quality Manager who oversees a rigorous programme of maintenance.
"The MH Bland Group prides itself on the extended family values that influence the way it does business and continually strives to remain at the forefront of the development of the marine and tourism industries in all Group activities.
As service providers we recognise the dual importance of our employees and our extensive assets and equipment. In order to properly care for each we operate a Quality System that plays a central role in ensuring that we train our employees and maintain our equipment to the highest standards required by regulatory authorities and clients. Furthermore, the Quality System plays a key role in ensuring that the service we provide to clients is continually improved.
The Quality System is subject to constant monitoring and is audited both internally and externally. It emphasises our commitment to Quality and generates real value to the Group".
