History
The beginning of our journey through the world of granite dates back to the seventies when our founder, Francisco Cabaleiro, created his first company, CABALEIRO NOGUEIRA SL. The company, which is located at the foot of the granite quarries of O Porriño, was initially exclusively dedicated to the extraction of granite from its own mining. During the first years he purchased several quarries located in southern Galicia and northern Portugal. From these quarries are still being extracted materials like the world-famous Rosa Porriño, Crema Julia (also known as Gris Mondariz) or the exclusive Gran Perla. Adapting to the market demands, it gradually incorporated machinery to its facilities for the transformation of blocks, specializing itself in the manufacture of thicknesses: perpend, columns, balustrades, curbs…
Years later, on November 22, 1999, Mr. Cabaleiro founded his second company, GRANITOS CABALEIRO SA, dedicated to cut, process and distribute granite slabs of various thicknesses and finishes like, for example: polished, flamed, honed, bush-hammered, satin or leather.
Although the company focused its market on the local and national level, thanks to its entrepreneurial spirit, it soon embarked on the great adventure of internationalization, exporting to several countries of the American and African continent.
Nowadays, thanks to our effort, the desire to improve and the trust and loyalty of our clients, we can say that we are present in practically every continent. The philosophy of our company has always pursued excellence in treatment and continuous improvement. To this end, we have been incorporating the last generation machinery to be able to serve our customers in greater quantity, in the shortest possible time. With this foresight approach, we hope to continue to serve our present and future clients in an incomparable way.
