Brand heritage

Grovana was founded in 1924 in Tenniken, in the Swiss canton of Basel-Landschaft, by the Gröflin brothers. In 1970 the business was acquired by entrepreneur Werner Bitterli, and it is still family owned, run today by his son Christopher Bitterli. Grovana is one of the few watch companies that still develops and produces its own watches in Baselland.
