Company history 1957 1957 1966 1966 1970 1970 1982 1982 1993 1993 1957 The company starts in a small workshop in the centre of the city of Fraga. Mr. Pablo Rigual, with his two eldest sons, José Luis and Pablo and two employees, began the activity of the company, to provide repair services to the agricultural businesses in the area. Then they start manufacturing agricultural trailers. 1966 The activity moves to bigger premises (300 m2), still in the centre of the city of Fraga. The growth of the company continued and a new change was soon required. 1970 Rigual moves to an industrial development area, on the outskirts of Fraga and builds two workshops with a total surface of 4500 m2. The commercial activity of the company now covers all of Spain and sales and production continue growing healthily, based on a widely recognised quality level and brand image in the agricultural machinery market. 1982 This growth led to a new change of facilities to its current location in the Litera Industrial Estate, on the road from Fraga to Barcelona, where 37,000 m2 of land was acquired to ensure the possibility of future expansion. In successive phases, the company built its headquarters and 8,000 m2 of industrial premises and additional covered outdoor storage areas. Carlos, the younger brother joins the Company in the Sales Department. The activity of the company started a successful diversification process. We won several important tenders for the Spanish Ministry of Defence to supply trailers and other military equipment. We also started manufacturing truck bodies for fuel transport and environmental applications, which became the origin of our current Energy and Environment Divisions which now represent over 75% of the Company turnover. 1993 This additional growth led to a further increase in the production capacity of the company, with nearly 6000 m2 of new industrial buildings.
