Ateliers Fourès is more than 50 years of history,
but above all there are many projects for the future!
REHABILITATION OF AN INDUSTRIAL WASTELAND
Our history is closely linked to that of the town of Graulhet, where we have been based since our creation. A leather town, it has more than a hundred abandoned tanneries and leather factories.
Our team is growing visibly and a move is necessary, but not just any old way! One of these tanneries is threatening to collapse into the Dadou, the local river. And it is in this tannery that we have decided to establish our future premises. We are convinced that this emblematic wasteland, located in the city center, will be the symbol of the revival of Graulhet and its historic leather industry.
We have been working on this project for several years, supported by the Graulhet Town Hall, the Occitanie Region and the State. Decontamination, rehabilitation and renovation are on the agenda, all with local stakeholders.
This project that is so close to our hearts is not just 'offices'. It is also:
- Restoring a magnificent building to its former glory (we can't wait to share some photos with you!)
- Inspiring other rehabilitation projects
- Show another face of Graulhet and symbolize the revival of the French leather industry
- To have a beautiful setting in which to develop know-how tourism.
- And of course, offer our employees a workplace that lives up to our ambitions.
