Garcia is an industrial engineer from Anahuac University in Mexico, and has a Master’s in engineering management.
Last month, Lala attributed higher sales and earnings to its drive to expand via M&A as well as geographical growth. Lala flagged progress on two initiatives: the conclusion of an agreement to acquire the branded business of Laguna Dairy Company in the US and expansion in Costa Rica via a tie up with Florida Bebidas for the production, distribution and sale of its products in the country.
