PROFILE |
 |
Mexican conglomerate ALFA is a big player in five different business groups. Alpek, a global petrochemical concern with a special emphasis on synthetic fibers (Akra-Jeijin, Fielmex, Indelpro, Petrotemex), and the Hylsamex steel group (Acerex, Hylsa, Galvak) account for about 70% of sales. Other operations include its refrigerated-foods business Sigma Alimentos (Yoplait), Versax (Nemak automotive parts, Terza rugs), and Onexa, which explores telecom opportunities through its Alestra unit. ALFA has alliances with more than 20 companies (such as AT&T and DuPont) around the world. It has agreed to sell its four-store Total HOME chain to US hardware giant The Home Depot to concentrate on its industrial businesses.
