Our history

1973

TRONICO is founded (500m²)

The birth of TRONICO: In December 1972, 22 residents of the town of Saint-Philbert-de-Bouaine agreed to invest their personal savings in an electronics subcontracting company.

This local crowdfunding initiative was driven by the need for Marcel Dassault Electronics to decentralise part of its production. Seven months later, "La Tronico" opened its doors under the leadership of Gérard Plet, CEO and founder, welcoming its first 30 employees, who were trained in the former village school.
