It is well known in Mexico for its convenience store chain Oxxo, its previously owned Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma Brewery (exchanged in 2010 for a 20% stake in Heineken), and for being the owner of the C.F. Monterrey, a Mexican First-Division football team. FEMSA is listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange since 1978 and in the NYSE through ADRs since 1998. It is a constituent of the IPC, the main benchmark index of the Mexican Stock Exchange, and of the S&P Latin America 40, which includes leading, blue chip companies from Latin America. == Origins == FEMSA's roots can be traced back to the foundation of Cervecería Cuauhtémoc in 1890 by Isaac Garza de la Garza (married to Consuelo Sada Muguerza), Francisco G. Sada Muguerza, Alberto Sada Muguerza, José Muguerza Crespo, José Calderón Muguerza, and José María Schneider. Cervecería Cuauhtémoc was close to bankruptcy when its founders were forced to leave the country, after the brewery was taken over by Villistas and Carrancistas during the Mexican Revolution in 1910. By 1936, the Garza and Sada families owned two interrelated groups, the Cervecería Cuauhtémoc and the Vidriera Monterrey. In 1936 both families decided to reorganize their stock holdings through the creation of Valores Industriales S.A. (later known as FEMSA) as a holding company to control both families' shares, especially Cervecería Cuauhtémoc and FAMOSA (Fábricas Monterrey, S.A.). In 1988, after restructuring the company's debt, FEMSA (Fomento Económico Mexicano, S.A. de C.V.), the main subsidiary of VISA, was constituted by Eugenio Garza Lagüera, bringing together the beer, packaging, soft-drink and retail companies. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「FEMSA」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
