History

Electricfil was created in La Boisse by Johanny Thollin (1889-962) [5][ circular reference]) in 1936 [6] with the assistance of his stepfather Joseph Guinet. He was mayor of La Boisse from the year 1908 to 1938. He was then the head of a small Braided Fabric electrical cable factory in La Boisse and in 1968 the company relocated to Beynost. [7]

The company announced in 2021 that they would have a turnover of 202 million euros [8] for the whole company (around 1,700 employees). [9]

In 2015, the company announced the creation of an incubator for innovative start-ups. [10]
