1978... The Birth of Pépinière Piazza & Gentile
In 1978, with the official opening of Pépinière Piazza & Gentile, the family business expanded. Soon, this small company will become a leading player in the landscaping industry.


2007... A Family Affair
In 2007, after many years of hard work, Giuseppe hands over the business to his three children: Angela, Orlando and Joe. Shortly after, Mega Centre Montréal was born. Mega Centre Montréal established itself as a leader not only in the landscaping industry, but also in that of masonry.
