PROFILE |
 |
Peso-pinching shoppers in Mexico can't miss Organización Soriana's huge stores. Founded in 1905 as a small family business in Torreón, Mexico, the company has grown into one of Mexico's largest retailers, with about 100 hypermarkets (huge stores that sell both food and general merchandise). Its stores have been located primarily in northern Mexico, but Soriana has been adding stores in central and southern Mexico, as well. The chain targets price-oriented consumers with name-brand and private-label food, clothing, housewares, and health care products, and it helps provide housing for its employees. The families of cousins CEO Ricardo Martín Bringas and VC Alberto Martín Soberón own most of the company and help run it.
