Cherubini Metal Works was founded in 1967 by two brothers, John and Jack Cherubini, originally from Italy. The company began as an ornamental railing fabricator and was acquired in 1972 by Renato and Danilo Gasparetto, who remain the business's owners today. Over time, the company has grown to become the largest structured steel fabricator in Atlantic Canada, with 600 employees (70 percent of whom are immigrants or refugees), and a number of other businesses in its group, including Burnside Truck Repair, Classic Freight, R & D Cranes, and Progressive Cabinets. The company is one of only three bridge builders in Canada and has worked across Canada and the US, and has been involved with both the "Big Lift" MacDonald Bridge project and PEI's Confederation Bridge in Atlantic Canada.
