Since the 1950s this site, a strategic place for Grugliasco and the whole metropolitan area of Torino, has made the history of the car industry. Through a public procedure in 2019, Leva S.p.A., Febametal S.p.A. and Sargomma S.r.l. acquired the area for over 3,400,000 euros from Finpiemonte Partecipazioni, through Sit (an investment and territory development company).
