Bigbon Group knows its origins to the early 1950s, when entrepreneur Carmelo Gauci traded in materials and fabrics as a hawker. His business success encouraged him to open his first retail shop in 1955 in Birkirkara and to enter the wholesale business. Gradually, Carmelo Gauci’s sons joined the business and continued to develop the group’s growing retail, wholesale and eventually manufacturing businesses. Today, Bigbon Group is owned by Bernard and Mario Gauci.

On the Maltese Islands, Bigbon Group represents the Spanish retail giant, Inditex Group. The brands currently managed by Bigbon Group are Bershka, Pull&Bear, Stradivarius, Oysho and Massimo Dutti.
