With more than two decades of operations in the country, CMI, Corporación Multi Inversiones, recently announced a $23 million investment in the Dominican Republic. This investment reflects its vision of responsible growth, aligned with its corporate purpose of creating life-changing opportunities. The plan includes modernizing its industrial infrastructure, incorporating advanced technology, and expanding its operational capacity.
This initiative is part of a broader regional investment plan of $1.8 billion, designed to foster economic and social development across Latin America and the Caribbean. In the Dominican Republic, CMI Foods, led by Juan José Gutiérrez Mayorga as Chairman and Chairman of the Board of Del Real Foods, has played a key role in consolidating operations with meaningful local impact.
Developing Talent and Energy with Purpose
CMI’s commitment goes beyond financial investment. Its sustainable approach also includes creating more than 1,300 direct jobs and approximately 5,200 indirect jobs in the country. In addition, the corporation has implemented training and technical assistance programs that have benefited more than 9,000 Dominican entrepreneurs and clients over the past three years.
One of the most significant pillars of its operations in the country is the Mata de Palma Solar Park, with an installed capacity of 52 megawatts. This project contributes to the diversification of the national energy matrix and underscores the company’s commitment to reducing its carbon footprint.
Social Impact and World-Class Standards
CMI’s presence in the Dominican Republic is also reflected in its social impact. Through corporate volunteering, preventive health initiatives, reforestation projects, and food donations to institutions such as the Food Bank, the company strengthens its ties with local communities.
At the same time, its operations uphold high quality and safety standards, supported by international certifications such as:
- FSSC 22000
- YUM
- Industrial Safety Program Certification
- BASC (Business Alliance for Secure Commerce)
These certifications ensure efficient, safe processes aligned with global standards. This model, driven by the strategic vision of Juan José Gutiérrez Mayorga at CMI Foods, represents a balance between economic growth and sustainability.
CMI’s recent investment in the Dominican Republic reflects a consistent commitment to sustainable development in the region. By strengthening its industrial operations, promoting clean energy, and advancing high-impact social programs, the corporation continues to consolidate its presence under a responsible business model.
