This week, we are welcoming Francesco Petulla to the Long Island Legends Podcast.
As the COO of Marcello Petulla Contracting, Francesco leads a company built on decades of experience and strong family values.

He’s been part of the company for more than 15 years, helping it grow and adapt to today’s demanding and rapidly evolving construction market. They specialize in high-quality masonry, development, and new construction, and he stays closely involved in every project to ensure precision, durability, and clear communication with clients and partners.
