Gildo Pastor (6 October 1910 – 21 October 1990) was a Monégasque businessman and property developer.
Life and career
Gildo Pastor was born in Monaco as the son of Jean-Baptiste Pastor, a stonemason from Liguria in Italy, who immigrated to Monte Carlo as a young man in the 1880s. He was educated at the Public Works School. In 1950, he became the Lebanese consul in Monaco.
After World War II, Pastor acquired oceanfront land at low prices, and in the 1950s, he started building apartment blocks. With a conservative, debt-averse approach, the Pastor family eventually owned some 3,000 apartments, representing 15% of Monaco's total housing stock and worth about €20 billion.
