Caballito is specialised in abrasive chemical materials and is based in Vitoria (Álava). After an eight month strike of 140 of its 225 workers, the company has decided to relocate production to a new site in Poland. The company will continue activity in its plant in Vitoria for the 85 workers who did not follow the strike and will study a job reduction plan for the workers that followed the strike. The company Pferd Rüggeberg has invested 36 million euros in 2003 in its plant in Vitoria.
