Founded 1990

DESCRIPTION

In 1990, García Carrión was a family-owned company, leader in the production of wine and juices, with the brand ‘Don Simón’. Its solid growth, which required a significant investment effort, drove the Company to seek support from Mercapital as the right partner for the definition and implementation of its business plan. Mercapital’s investment enabled the Company to accelerate its development, trough the strengthening of its leading position in the wine market, thanks to the introduction of wines from other denominations, and the expansion and diversification into other segments, such as freshly squeezed juices, fruit drinks, gazpacho and functional beverages.
