Portelli Weighing Systems was established in 1990 as part of the strategic expansion of I.V. Portelli & Sons Ltd., with the initial scope of work focused on the import and sale of Ishida mechanical scales. The initiative marked the company’s entry into a new sector, complementing its already established and respected presence within the agricultural industry.

From its origins as a specialised weighing scale provider, Portelli Weighing Systems has grown into one of Malta’s leading companies in this sector. Over the years, the organisation has expanded both its capabilities and market reach, developing into a structured operation comprising dedicated sales and service departments. Today, the company supports a broad spectrum of industries across Malta and Gozo with an extensive range of professional equipment and technical solutions.

The sales department manages the import and distribution of high-quality electronic weighing scales, food processing machinery, thermal printers, price-tag printers, queuing systems, and other equipment for industrial, commercial, and professional applications. Complementing this, the service department provides comprehensive after-sales support through a fully trained and qualified technical team, ensuring reliability, continuity, and long-term client confidence.

In March 2026, Portelli Weighing Systems entered a new phase of development by becoming a brand of JETHO LTD.. This transition reflects a strategic evolution designed to strengthen operational capabilities, expand technological expertise, and enhance service delivery, while preserving the strong legacy and industry experience built over more than three decades.
