1926 , "Temps was Temps" Serrat sang. Some would say that it has rained a lot since then, others that not as much as we would like. In 90 years we have lived quite amazing, technological, social, cultural, climatic, etc ... changes and it seems incredible that a shop selling to detail and so specialized to survive all these years between a global world with fierce competition and many wild times .
Right here, where specialization is born, the future of a business is born, which bet on science from its first moment. Meteorology, optics, astronomy and precision instrumentation , these were, are and will be the four pillars of Raig.
A change of location is always a difficult challenge to face. The legendary Raig store on Calle Pelai on the corner of Rambles was a landmark in Barcelona. There Raig turned 87 years old, in a place of just over 45m2 , where only the entrance already meant transferring to another dimension. The very dynamics of a large city like Barcelona , is often translated into pressure and changes of use in certain sectors, today franchises and restaurants are a steamroller in the center of large cities.
The day of change has arrived and Raig has moved to a new location, this time at C / Consell de Cent 324 . A much more spacious and with an exhibition area in line with the range of products that are in Raig, more than 2,000 references store.
Located very close to Passeig de Gràcia, the great modernist promenade of the city and in a neighborhood of l'Eixample where the diversification of commerce has gained relevance in the last 15 years.
Tradition vs. modernity , exclusive concepts?
No way! Raig continues to offer all the instruments of observation and analog precision, perfectly valid and homologated, and at the same time we have opened ourselves to the entire range of digital products, even adapted to new concepts of smartphone and wi-fi.
Modernity also translates into a huge web catalog at www.raig.com, as well as physical advice (on-site), on-line and / or telephone are the key and the added value of the pre / during and post-sale service in Raig. The advice of its specialized personnel is key to the choice and treatment of the product.
And the day came, on June 8, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. we will open our new physical store in Barcelona, C / Consell de Cent 324 . An act of presentation awaits us , the official opening of the premises and later an aperitif, a moment for the meeting between clients, institutions and authorities present at the event.
We can only extend our invitation to the inauguration , and wish that Raig continues to be your reference in science and observation.
