Sedano's Management, Inc.
 PROFILE
The story behind Sedano's Management strikes a chord with many of its South Florida customers. Armando Guerra Sr., a Cuban banker and grocer, came to the US in 1961 and bought a small grocery store called Sedano's. He kept the name and grew it into a chain of about 25 supermarkets and 13 pharmacies in southern Florida. The stores play salsa music on the speakers and the clerks greet customers in Spanish. Packaged Hispanic foods and Latin American fruits and vegetables sit on the shelves next to typical American fare. The company is one of the nation's largest Hispanic-owned businesses. The Guerra and Herran families (CEO Manuel Herran married the founder's niece) own most of Sedano's.
