80 Years of History and Growth: The Origins of Grupo San Simón

Grupo San Simón’s history reflects 80 years of growth and commitment to Venezuela. It began with Luis Ángel Pérez Atencio, whose vision and determination led him to establish Fundo San Pedro, a ranch in the area south of Lake Maracaibo that laid the foundation for our organization.

Years later, working alongside his son Wilmer Ramón Pérez Carroz, the company began producing pasteurized milk on an industrial scale in western Venezuela. Cattle farming became the foundation of our work in the field.

Building on the work of two generations, Grupo San Simón has grown into an integrated agribusiness group with dairy, meat and oil palm divisions. Under the leadership of the Pérez Llavaneras family, we uphold our founders’ principles and continue to support Venezuela’s agro-industrial development.
