Description
The French manufacturer of swimming pools Andréi announced on 23 October 2006 the opening of a factory for production of swimming pools in La Gravelle (Mayenne).
The company, originally from the south of France, Marseille, where it still has its principal factory, already employs 30 people in La Gravelle and should recruit 300 additional employees between January 2007 and January 2009 because the market for swimming pools is growing in France.
