A passing place, witness to the passage of empires past, a pioneer in providing links with the plateau, the land of noblemen and lords, the first industrial area in the province... the town of Los Corrales de Buelna holds a privileged place in the history of Cantabria. And not just by coincidence. The geographical richness of its environment and the noble and devoted spirit of its people has meant that all the projects undertaken over the centuries have become a reality. The difficulties have always been small in comparison to the great strength of will of the town's residents.

What follows –the history of Fundimotor y Mecobusa and now Nissan Cantabria– is but the latest milestone in this fine and historic tradition.
