FCA has been in business for 90 years. The cooperative was founded by a group of area farmers interested in lower lime costs. They invested in a quarry (no longer in use) and were able to mine limestone for the area. Years that followed added a petroleum division, which for nearly 50 years was the Frederick County resource for Exxon fuels - and a feed division which has developed a reputation in the area for quality feeds at reasonable prices. FCA currently manufactures and sells feeds for any species, including dairy & beef cattle, race & pleasure horses, swine, poultry, sheep, goats, emu, llama, rabbits, dogs & cats. We specialize in show feeds for 4-H and FFA projects. If you have animals, you need to stop by FCA.
Agricultural Co-operative Limited was founded on the 11th June 1965 by fourteen founder members under the name of Agricultural Trading Co-operative Limited. From its inception Agrico-op has been dedicated to the search for new techniques and products suitable for use in agriculture in Malta as well as the technical and professional formation and education of its members. The first retail outlet was opened in Marsa in 1968 and in 1977 a mobile sales outlet was set up at Ta Qali, close to the Vegetable Market. Between 1985 and 1993, three "Agricentres" were opened, at Siggiewi, Burmarrad and Zabbar. The latter has since been transferred to another farmer's co-operative. 1991 was a milestone in the history of the Agricultural Co-operative Limited., by the inauguration of the Potato Grading and Packing Station at Ta' Qali. Such an activity contributed directly towards the development and enhancement of Malta's potato export trade. In 1995 Agricultural Co-operative Limited moved from Marsa to new premises at Mdina Road, Zebbug. The Co-operative is a leading supplier of quality agricultural products which include seeds, pesticides, fertilizers irrigation systems, tools and seedings. Great impotance is given to education and periodically, foreign agronomists and suppliers are invited over to Malta to inspect the farms and talk to the members now totaling to about one thousand five hundred. Twenty years ago the Gardening and Landscaping section has been established within the Co-operative. he staff of this division consists of experienced and professional gardeners headed by an agricultural engineer. The list of satisfied clients is continually increasing and is composed of: Holiday Resorts and Hotels, Local councils, sports complexes, Public gardens, Private Villas, Banks and clubs. Only the best materials are used in the maintenance and proatection of plants and shrubs.
