History of Paris
The first of André Citroën's factories, dedicated to the war effort, was built in 1915 on a site used until then by melon growers, the last vestiges of the market gardening industry on the banks of the Seine.

The workers, mainly women, worked day and night to manufacture 75mm munitions shells at the rate of 50.000 per day. In 1918, André Citroën converted his factory to manufacture cars which were at that time something of a rarity. The following year, the first cars left the factory and in 1920, the first mass production line in France was opened.
Other innovations: the sale by subscription of a popular model, available to all and the creation of a worldwide network of after-sale agents.
