MADE WITH COMMITMENT AND PASSION The MEP Group has firm roots in one of the many entrepreneurial families that thrive in a region rich in hard-working people, history and art. It all began in a small workshop in the historical centre of Pergola, a town in the province of Pesaro-Urbino, in the Marche region of Italy. Enzo Magnani began his career as a mechanic, exploiting the skills he had acquired with British and American forces based in Italy during the Second World War. The ingenuity he showed in his small workshop led to the creation of the first sawing machine, which proved so efficient...
