Within months of starting his first business at the tender age of 20, an advertising agency/production house, Robert Zammit secured a five-year contract with Malta’s biggest station, which allowed the agency to make its presence known and felt in the advertising world. The company grew to the point where it was eventually sold off four years later.

“At age 24, I obtained my doctorate in law at the University of Malta. At this time, I realised there were only a few sectors in Malta that would satisfy my appetite for growth.

“Having graduated and, hence, having more time on my hands to work on the company, I started directing all my energy to property development,” he recalls

Partnering with his father, who had years of experience in the industry, Mr Zammit reinvented his father’s company, taking over marketing, PR, stock selection and purchasing, setting up strategic partnerships with suppliers, both local and abroad, and putting in place SOPs that were previously non-existent. “This took the property development company to unprecedented heights but this was not where I wanted to be. The vision of high-quality homes lived on in my heart, so much so that I launched an upmarket brand of high-quality property development,” he explains.

Moving offices to Ta‘ Xbiex, and simultaneously acquiring the majority shareholding in a London-based real estate franchise, Mr Zammit ensured that Luxfair Realty Group secured its position as a versatile, multi-faceted leader in the property development and real estate industry in Malta.

The latest acquisition consists of a building contractor company, ensuring that clients will have on-time delivery of the properties being sold, apart from offering the Group considerable savings on the cost of properties.

“For the future, I now plan to take the company international. Plans are already in play to make this a reality,” Mr Zammit says.
