The history of Corporación Multi-Inversiones (CMI) is full of milestones. CMI is a gigantic business conglomerate, born in Guatemala, present in six business activities: Poultry Industry; Milling Industry; Restaurants; Hydroelectric, Construction and Finance. Its business empire goes beyond Guatemalan borders through Molinos Modernos and its poultry operation is present in all Central American countries, with a relevant market share. With its best-known brand, Pollo Campero, it reached three continents: America, Asia and Europe.
With Pollo Campero, its global company, CMI made history by undertaking, through its own investments and franchises, an aggressive expansion that brought the brand to China (it withdrew after two years), Europe (it maintains a successful operation in Spain), and the United States, where it manages more than 50 restaurants.
It was the first Central American company to tackle the Chinese market, and when it decided to enter the US, it penetrated the bowels of American culture by opening restaurants at Disney and Walmart.
