The Hispano-Suiza car factory is an example of the commercial and economic success of a Barcelona company that crossed borders. On June 14, 1904, politician, businessman and collector Dami\u00e0 Mateu, businessman Francesc Seix and Swiss engineer Marc Birkigt founded the luxury car brand “Hispano-Suiza” in Barcelona, \u200b\u200bwhich was initially located in Barcelona’s Eixample. The success of his models was immediate and he soon began to export cars to Russia and South America. The Hispano-Suiza factory, which had already established a subsidiary in France in 1911, exported from Barcelona to the whole world some of the most desired luxury vehicles of the first third of the 20th century.
