The wonderful story of a small business that became a world leader 1906-1929 | Everything starts with an entrepreneurial vision Every great story begins with one bold idea. In 1906, Henry Bergerat founded a company dedicated to bringing innovative industrial equipment to France. From the very beginning, the ambition was clear: introduce technologies that did not yet exist on the French market and help customers tackle increasingly complex projects. A few years later, Francis Monnoyeur joined the adventure. Then came a defining moment. During a business trip to Seville in 1929, Francis Monnoyeur discovered what he called "the machine of the future", the Caterpillar Thirty bulldozer. He immediately signed the agreement making Bergerat Monnoyeur the exclusive Caterpillar dealer in France. A partnership that still continues 96 years later. Looking back today, this decision changed much more than the future of one company. It laid the foundations of what would become the Monnoyeur group. 120 years later, the entrepreneurial spirit that inspired this decision continues to guide us. 📅 Next Tuesday, we'll discover how Monnoyeur continued to support its customers through one of the most challenging periods in history. #120Years #Anniversary #Monnoyeur120 #History #Innovation #Caterpillar #Monnoyeur #GoingFurtherTogether
