Flagship companies date from this period, including Isnard, Galimard, Chiris, Debézieux, the Fargeons, Roure and Lautier. The artisanal production of the early days was transformed into a veritable industry capable of adapting to the new imperatives of the market, and competing with Montpellier. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histoire_de_Grasse
