The project strengthens the palm oil value chain and brings advanced technology to the Inversiones El Palmeral complex
Grupo San Simón is moving ahead with construction and installation of its new palm oil refinery and fractionation plant at the Inversiones El Palmeral complex in Santa Bárbara del Zulia. The project marks a milestone for our agribusiness operations and strengthens Venezuela’s palm oil value chain.
The facility uses advanced technology supplied by GAGAN International, a company based in Ludhiana, Punjab, India, with more than 50 years of experience and an international presence. Once operational, the facility will expand our processing capacity and add value to the palm oil produced within our supply chain.
The project will deepen the integration of our operations, strengthen domestic production, improve efficiency and sustainability, and open opportunities to serve Venezuela and potential export markets. It also supports food sovereignty and the growth of the country’s agribusiness sector.
Through investment, innovation, and a long-term approach, we continue to turn Venezuela’s agricultural potential into projects that create value and support sustainable development.
