It has been 130 years since our founder, Pedro Francisco Ferrá Mir, started the family business, presently known as Grupo Ferrá and structured around three business units: Ferrá Tur, Baltyc y Protech. Our services include new build construction, renovations, maintenance of all kinds of buildings and health and safety management.
Today, after 4 generations, we are still a big family. This is the reason why we want to celebrate this anniversary, presenting our company through the eyes of some of our 65 employees that help build it every day.
Our most noteworthy projects
One of our most relevant construction works, under Pedro Francisco Ferrá Mir’s leadership, was the old GESA power plant. This is one of the highlights that his great-granddaughter and our Marketing Manager, Ana Ferrá, brought up when discussing our beginnings during her interview with Style in Mallorca.

Our relationship with GESA continued with the execution of many more maintenance projects. Juan Arbona, master bricklayer at Grupo Ferrá for 24 years, remembers this clearly when asked about his best memories on working with the company:
“Those were some extremely rewarding years in which we worked side by side as a big team. Both us from Ferra Tur and GESA’s staff”.
A big family
This is how Raquel Carrasco, Financial Manager at Grupo Ferrá for 13 years, defines her experience at the company. When asked “What is your favourite thing about working at Grupo Ferrá?”, Carrasco adds:
“It’s wonderful to feel part of a company, where you are listened to and where your opinions count. And more importantly, you are treated as an individual, not a number.”
Upon being asked the same question, our Works manager, Tolo Soler, adds that after more than 20 years working at Grupo Ferrá:
“The feeling of camaraderie is one of my favourites. The good vibe with my colleagues and when I see that things are moving in the right direction and everything is going well”.
Our General Manager, Antoni Gurrera, has experienced this same feeling of a close team with a human touch ever since his first day at Grupo Ferrá:
“I immediately noticed the great atmosphere that we are so fortunate to enjoy at Ferrá Tur […] I was welcomed with open arms both by my colleagues and by the Ferrá family and, well, now I feel a bit like part of the family."
“Values, enthusiasm and commitment”
Our Site team manager, Víctor Trujillo, also mentions a big family when commenting on his experience working at Grupo Ferrá:
“After 19 years at Grupo Ferrá, I can define this big family with 3 words: values, enthusiasm and commitment”
Each finished project carries good memories
And this is how our Site manager, Lluis Alomar explains it, while also fondly connecting his best memories within the company with the birth of this daughter in 2010:
“Every time that we finish a project it's a lovely memory, because we have just completed a client’s dream house”.
From Grupo Ferrá, we would like to thank every single one of our professionals for the effort and dedication that they pour into every project. Thanks to this big family, we are still building our history, since 1890.
