Hispavox S.A. was a major Spanish record company founded on June 27, 1953, that ran independently until 1985 when it was acquired by EMI.
The company managed to edit, produce and distribute exclusively and independently for CBS and Warner Brothers (prior to their merger as WEA).
The exclusive exploitation of these two companies in the Spanish market, led to the expansion of its catalog throughout the world: Latin America, the United States, Japan, Russia, etc.
It topped sales in Spain and in Latin America and, in July 1959, Hispavox served a Golden Disk award to Montiel for the number of records sold.
Since 1958 Alfredo Kraus recorded in Hispavox Katiuska, La tabernera del puerto and Black el payaso.
