Mexican Company Outsourcing Jobs to the United States

"Within in the next three years, one out of three babies born in the United States will be Hispanic. Hispanic American families have become a force, soon spending $1.5 trillion a year on goods, creating jobs for the companies that jump on the opportunity.

While there has been a lot of talk about jobs being shipped across the border to Mexico, there is one company that is actually sending jobs to the United States.

The Mexico City factory of baking company Grupo Bimbo can’t keep up with demand in America. Hispanic Americans back in the United States can’t get enough of their breads and other goodies, including chips that taste like guacamole.

When Bimbo first began selling its products in the United States, it didn’t have any factories. Today, the company has 80 plants that have created 40,000 jobs in the U.S., and it will continue to add more..............

Back when I had a real job in Colorado Springs, there was a Bimbo store across the street. I'd stop after work to shop.

but no bimbo bread will never taste as good a "fresh out of the oven tachigual" made in Ajijic.

CG...did you forget the product name "Wonder" which they use here in Mexico, and used to be used in the US (the northern territories) .

slainte39:

I believe (?) that the Wonder Bread brand name was licensed by Bombo in Mexico? When Hostess Brands went bankrupt, Grupo Bimbo has in the bidding for Wonder Bread, Twinkies and a number of the Hostess brand names. Wonder was purchased by Flowers Foods and I am not sure if Bimbo was successful in acquiring any of the other pieces.

Wish we had Bimbos in Canada.

Same here. I'd stop at the Bimbo USA store in North Little Rock, and stock up.

As near as I can figure Grupo Bimbo doesn't currently have a presence in Canada. It did purchase the USA unit of George Weston Ltd. for $2.38 billion:

I wouldn't be surprised to see them venture into Canada in the near future!

Thanks for the info... think I'll share with my family and friends back home, who use many of the brands listed.
