FIVISA / Fierro Vignoli
S.A. was founded in August 1941
by Carlos Fierro Vignoli. In 1952 it
adopted the corporate name Fierro Vignoli
S.A., under which it has operated ever
since.
At
the beginning it specialized in selling
lighting equipment and related products,
but some years later it began operations
in the sector of electric supplies.
It has been steadily growing and currently
has nine shops and a logistics center
for merchandise distribution.
In 1960, the company
opened its first branch in the city
of Maldonado, contributing to promote
tourism development in the eastern zone
of the country. By 1965 it had consolidated
as the main supplier of electric supplies
in the Uruguayan market.
The
company later established in the Departments
of Paysandú, then Salto and Colonia.
Almost at the same time, it was decided
to open a second branch in the Department
of Maldonado, specifically in the city
of Punta del Este.
The expansion process continued, and
in the 1990s, a branch was opened in
Ciudad de la Costa, Solymar. Also in
that decade, we opened our Hardware
Department, as another area to complement
our lines of supplies, thus offering
a wider variety of products for the
convenience of our customers.
The last two branches
were opened in the Departments of Tacuarembó
and Mercedes, increasing our presence
and leadership in the country.
The dedication and hard work of all
the employees of FIVISA have enabled
us to become an icon and leader in the
Uruguayan electric product market, offering
high-quality services with renowned
added value, with the guaranty of our
65 years of life.
