France: The Richel Group celebrates 50 years of business

This year the European greenhouse manufacturer Richel celebrates its 50 years anniversary.  Celebrating such a long history in the greenhouse business is a good moment to look back at the most recent and significant projects the company has been involved with over the past year.

This summer, around 500 people (employees, customers, suppliers, service providers and others) attended the Richel Group’s 50th birthday celebrations.

In 2014, a number of significant projects were carried out by Richel, notably:
