Description

This commercial letter between the Catalan company Albiac and Mr. Fernand Gebelli reflects international commercial relations in the field of the chemical industry, specifically in the manufacture and distribution of bitumen products. The document is a testament to the internationalization of Catalan companies during the late Franco regime, at a time when the industrial fabric was looking to expand and establish links with European markets. This correspondence is part of the theme of economic engines and international relations, and shows how, despite internal political limitations, Catalonia maintained a dynamic economic activity open to the world.
