Toluca Foods Inc., founded by Víctor Soto, was created to offer dried peppers, spices, and authentic ingredients to the food industry in the United States. Soto, who began his career in the foodservice sector, saw the need for an opportunity to improve the quality and presentation of this market.
What began in a garage in Waukegan, Illinois, in 2001 has evolved into a renowned company based in Morrow, Georgia.
First-Class Facilities
Since moving in 2013, Toluca Foods has expanded and improved its facilities in Morrow. The company added refrigerators to preserve imported products and connected two buildings by a bridge to optimize production and distribution flow.
With expansion plans underway, they seek to maximize their logistics capacity and continue to drive growth.
Technological Innovation as a Driver of Success
Technology has been key to the growth of Toluca Foods.
Its production plant has robots for palletizing boxes and machines that weigh, package, and label products. These advances allow it to offer high-quality products while improving operational efficiency.
Wide Range of Products and Quality Standards
Toluca Foods specializes in the cleaning and packaging dried chili peppers, spices, and its own blends.
Their commitment to quality led them to obtain SQF certification in 2019. This certification guarantees food safety at every stage with suppliers who comply with all Toluca Foods standards.
