Behind the scenes at the Vignal Group: a reliable, forward-looking network structure.
The Vignal Group is a global player and an important partner to leading manufacturers of commercial and off-road vehicles thanks to its innovative lighting and safety solutions. Léon Vignal founded the electrical equipment company in Lyon in 1919. The following years saw the emergence of partnerships in the fields of lighting and safety systems for heavy goods vehicles with well-known groups such as Berliet, as well as the acquisition of companies such as ABL Lights (market leader in lighting for off-road vehicles) or CEA (specialist in beacons and safety products for special vehicles, and agricultural vehicles in particular).
In 2016, the group found that it had outgrown its site in Vénissieux and decided to relocate to a new 11,500 m² location in Corbas, where it set up a production hall and an R&D center.
In 2023, Vignal acquired a further company, Sesaly, making it necessary to extend the site by 8000 m² in order to accommodate the new line of business.
