The beginning of an extraordinary journey
It all began on May 15th, 1985 with a few dozen employees and the dream of Mario Kasslatter to create a leading mutli-service business that would never compromise on quality.
After a few smaller projects, in spring of 1986, Markas wins its first important cleaning contract and starts its collaboration with 'Azienda Ospedaliera Santa Croce e Carle'; a collaboration that continues to this very day and proves our reliability, fairness and strong commitment to our employees and our business partners.
Today, we count 11 offices in 3 different countries. We continue honoring our values and we keep growing thanks to the determination, passion and dedication of our staff.

Delivering service quality through our people
10.000 employees means much more than a number to us. Our people are our success and their motivation and satisfaction is the key to high quality services for everyone!
That's why we never stop investing in a positive company culture where collaboration, creative thinking and personal growth are key values.
No matter the role or the location of our employees, through a series of initiatives and tailor-made training programs we ensure that they are properly qualified, actively involved and respected as individuals.
During 2020 and despite the pandemic we invested more than 37.500 hours in staff training while creating truly inclusive workplaces where all workers feel welcome and safe has never stopped being a priority.
