Our team:
European training, Made in 🇲🇽
- and Proud !
Our story talks about excellency, know-how, and transmission, and is embodied by our team. Historically, Production Leads spent time in Europe in 1985 to be trained in the best workshops, and then François Polad arrived in 1986 as GM with an advanced technical knowledge to train all of our workers internally. The current Artemio leadership started in 2015 to reignite a team of 40 shining stars and leverage their deep, qualitative know-how with improved organization & methodologies. ✨
