The story of DAHLBERG SA It is closely linked to B&G .

Kjell Dahlberg founder of the company and B&G technical service since 1972 , he maintained a friendship with Mr. Arthur Gale, director of the technical department. This friendship allowed that in 1979 Margarita Dahlberg completed her training as an intern in the technical department of B&G.

There, and during his internship, he participated in the regatta service and during Cowe Week. 1979 (we remember this regatta and the dates because of the unfortunate tragedy of the Fasnet Race of the Royal Ocean Racing Club) was presented to B&G founder Major Gatehouse.

In that year, the first prototypes of the Hercules 190 They were in their testing phase and Margarita states:

“It was a very exciting moment for me, seeing from within the development process with the help of the designers, how the system collected the information, processed it and distributed it to the different multifunctional displays. It was a very novel technology and concept.”

Their technical knowledge, the know-how acquired at B&G, gave DAHLBERG a competitive advantage by obtaining in 1980 one of the exclusive certificates of Official B&G Technical Service . And it must be said that Margarita Dahlberg was the first woman to obtain it. 1984 The company became the official distributor of B&G for all of Spain until 1991 . In 1998 received the “BUSINESS GROWTH” award and on B&G’s 50th anniversary ( 2006 ) received special recognition for 3 decades of support to B&G.
