1977
In 1977 the Bruno family creates Frandent, and starts to make the first power harrows. The first company brand is born.
It all began in a small farm machinery repair and sales shop in Cavour, where dad Maurilio build and patented a perfected power harrow. From this experience, Frandent was born in June 1977, with headquarters in Osasco.
The name of the company is the combination of the two main components of the harrow in Italian: franditori (sod-breakers) and denti (tines).Frandent, a lucky name for a company that produces and sales hight quality machines.
More than thirty-five years of intense and committed work, agricultural machines that are appreciated throughout Europe, international patents, a new model plant where technology and innovation aim to both design and build machines that make the farmer's work easier, and the work of skilled craftsmen and technicians more comfortable and productive. All in a context of particular respect for the environment.
To sum things up, this is a photograph of Frandent…a photograph we're very proud of!
