About Matador

Matador represents one of Slovakia's most distinguished industrial heritage stories, with origins stretching back to 1905 in Bratislava before establishing its modern identity in Púchov, Slovakia, in 1947. Originally founded as "Gumárne 1. mája" (Rubber Works of 1st of May) as a national enterprise, the company initially operated under the Barum trademark, reflecting the centralised industrial planning characteristic of post-war Czechoslovakia. This early period established the foundation for what would become one of Central Europe's most successful tyre manufacturing enterprises.
