PROFILE |
 |
Gruma has rolled over its competitors to reach the top of the tortilla industry. The company is the world's #1 maker of corn flour and tortillas; it also produces wheat flour and sliced bread. Its brand names include Maseca, Mission, and Guerrero. Nearly half of Gruma's sales come from US subsidiary Gruma Corporation, whose tortillas and chips are found in grocery stores and in restaurants such as Taco Bell. Publicly traded Mexican subsidiary Grupo Industrial Maseca (GIMSA) generates more than 25% of Gruma's sales. The company also has operations in Central America and Venezuela. Gruma owns 60% of Molinera de México, a milling joint venture with Archer Daniels Midland. The company was founded in 1949.
