The beginning<\/h3>

FRIME started operating in 1937, under the direcion of Jes\u00fas Ramon G\u00f3mez, grandfather of the current manager Salvador Ramon Mateo and father of the founder of FRIME, Salvador Ramon Gr\u00e0cia.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

It all began in La Boqueria<\/h3>

Jes\u00fas was imprisoned in a concentration camp on the beaches of Argel\u00e8s (France). On his return to Barcelona, in 1937, he opened a small fish stall in La Boqueria Market (Barcelona). <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Life in the market<\/h3>

Salvador Ramon Gr\u00e0cia helped his father to buy fish at night in the Borne market and, during the day, he delivered ice bars to the fishmongers' shops in Barcelona.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

The outcome of his efforts<\/h3>

Those years allowed Salvador to discover and learn everything he needed to know about the product, the market and its distribution as a wholesaler and producer.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

FRIME\u2019s first steps<\/h3>

In the late 70s, Salvador Ramon Gr\u00e0cia founded FRIME S.A.U. and, more than 40 years later, the family tradition continues with the third generation Ramon linked to the sea.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

FRIME opens up to the world<\/h3>\n

The company starts exporting tuna to Japan and this leads the company to take a special interest in the tuna sector.<\/p>\n

Based on these exports, FRIME develops its own technology and is inspired by the tuna defrosting and freezing techniques in Japan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
