Everyone loves to eat Tex-Mex, and you can't do it without tortillas. This 60-year old Mexican company Gruma S.A.B de C.V. (GMK) took a hands-on mom-and-pop process and has commercialized tortilla making on an unprecedented scale. GMK makes and… More

Everyone loves to eat Tex-Mex, and you can't do it without tortillas. This 60-year old Mexican company Gruma S.A.B de C.V. (GMK) took a hands-on mom-and-pop process and has commercialized tortilla making on an unprecedented scale. GMK makes and distributes tortillas at a lower price than it costs most Latin American families to make tortillas themselves. How can GMK keep prices so low as to fend off competitors? Because GMK obtains its supplies (corn, flour, etc.) from its 23% equity investor, the commodity conglomerate Archer Daniels Midland (ADM).

GMK operates in Mexico, the United States, Central America, and Venezula. It recently started operations in Europe. I'd like to see Tex-Mex food storm into Africa (but that's another story). And a little while back, I came upon a NYTimes article about Korean tacos: http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/28/dining/28united.html?_r=1&pagewanted=all

La ley del SEÑOR es perfecta, que restaura el alma; el testimonio del SEÑOR es seguro, que hace sabio al sencillo. Los preceptos del SEÑOR son rectos, que alegran el corazón; el mandamiento del SEÑOR es puro, que alumbra los ojos. El temor del SEÑOR es limpio, que permanece para siempre; los juicios del SEÑOR son verdaderos, todos ellos justos; deseables más que el oro; sí, más que mucho oro fino, más dulces que la miel y que el destilar del panal. Además, tu siervo es amonestado por ellos; en guardarlos hay gran recompensa. Salmos 19:7-11
