至60年代，工廠由第二代接手，開始了現代化，銷售網絡亦擴大至整個加泰地區。
到了90年代，現在的第三代負責人接手了工廠。進一步的現代化及應用了新科技，令Pallarès的產品遍佈歐洲， 南美洲，更遠至香港!


The company Pallarès, founded in 1917, is today the only testimony to Solsona’s renowned knife-making industry.

The company Pallarès was formed at the hand of brothers Lluís and Carles Pallarès Canal (Lluís’s uncle was already knife maker), soon to be characterized by the good temper and good sharpness of its knives, which they sold throughout the Solsonés region and in the provinces of Barcelona and Girona.

In the 1960s, the company was run by brothers Jesús and Juli Pallarès Moncunill, Lluís’s children. This saw the start the company’s modernization and expansion of its market to the rest of Catalonia and throughout Spain. By mid 1980s, only 2 knife-making workshops remained and at the beginning of 1990s just one, Cuchillería Pallarès is still in business. At the beginning of this century, the third generation took over the running of the company. Modernization and adaptation to new technologies continued and the market expanded into France, Switzerland, Germany and various South American countries.
