• MARCA was born in Cartagena in 1966 to meet the demand of the large industry of Southeast Spain by manufacturing workwear as well as canvas gloves for work and marketing all types of Epis.
• In the second half of the 80s he began to develop a commercial network at the national level to sell work gloves and work clothing throughout Spain.
• Parallel to the manufacturing activity in the workwear manufacturing workshop, imports from the Far East are made for those high-rotation items for which greater competitiveness was needed.
• In 2005, it added safety footwear to its catalogue, thus seeking to specialise in the three most important chapters in the PPE market.
• 2008: MARCA is acquired by Bunzl, a world leader in the sector (www.bunzl.com).
• 2010: The MARVEL subsidiary is absorbed by incorporating the rest of the PPE into its catalogue (height, eye, head, auditory and respiratory protection) offering its customers a comprehensive service.
• Efficient human team and 7,000m2 warehouse that guarantee the fastest availability of PPE in the market. • Efficient sales network with close contact with the customer (distributors). • Great specialization in each of the groups of PPE we work with. Technical advice on them to our customers. • Manufacturing agreements with the best factories. We are not importers who buy indiscriminately, changing suppliers in the East based solely on price. We establish lasting and very close relationships with those who are able to offer the best quality with the best service and at a good price. We also exercise strict control over them. Our Bunzl office in Shanghai plays a great role in auditing each factory annually, not only for quality and service purposes, but also for maintaining respect for the environment, social, labor, hygiene and health conditions, etc. • Strict quality control at all stages: raw material suppliers, manufacturing process, shipment of goods, and storage in our Cartagena facilities. • Excellent price/quality ratio of our products. • All our items are made in accordance with European regulations. • Being part of an international organization, we achieve synergies with our sister companies around the world and ensure continuity in our own development and financial strength.
