 PROFILE
Grupo Industrial Maseca (GIMSA) has its mission cut out for it: providing you with food in the round. A publicly traded subsidiary of corn miller Gruma, GIMSA is the largest producer of corn flour in Mexico. GIMSA supplies homemakers and industrial tortilla manufacturers in Mexico and the US with Maseca brand corn flour (ready to mix with water) in contrast to old-fashioned competitors who make and sell traditional wet corn dough. Its Mission division is the largest tortilla maker in the US and is expanding into Europe. After Mexico deregulated the tortilla market, GIMSA invested in manufacturing, distribution, and corn inventories only to struggle amid a drop in consumer demand and other unfavorable conditions.
