For the recording of this new success story , we have travelled to Vigo, where we were able to get to know our partners from the Marsan Group , both personally and professionally , a company of Galician origin, with a global character, specialising in surface coatings for the automotive sector . Currently, the Marsan Group has more than 400 employees spread across six production units, with a presence in Mexico, Spain and Portugal.

With the structure of a small family business, Grupo Marsan began its activity in 1951, specialising in the stamping of metal parts. Since then, it has focused the experience and knowledge acquired over homeowner database more than 6 decades on the evolution and growth in the operational excellence of its processes, with a clear vocation for service and personalised attention to its customers .

In order to continue promoting the growth of the organization, in 2016 Grupo Marsan decided to approve a strategic plan for the next 5 years that, among other projects, included the implementation of an ERP system to provide global coverage for all the company's needs.
