About Legrand
Legrand was founded in 1860 in Limoges in central France, where it all began with the production of porcelain parts (including insulators). From 1949, the site concentrated exclusively on the production of electrical installation materials. In 1966, the first foreign subsidiary was opened in Belgium and from then on, Legrand continuously pursued global growth and the acquisition of major companies in the electrical industry. Today, Legrand has its own subsidiaries in more than 70 countries around the world, employs 30,000 people and is the world market leader in switch ranges and cable laying technology systems.
