Aga Productora has a culinary line based on the biological wealth of native corn varieties. Aga develops gastronomical centers in a network of gourmet tortilla franchises, and provides raw materials for restaurants in the global market.
AGA Productora’s impacts:
AGA has worked on the identification of native (criollo) varieties of corn and the agronomic and culinary development of these varieties. To satisfy its own demand, the company has reproduced seeds in the areas of origin of these corn varieties and has aligned with producer groups to establish an integrated network of native corn production cooperatives.
The company developed the brand “Itanoní Flor del Maíz” to market its gourmet corn products. The company was invited by The Culinary Institute of America to participate in its Fifth Annual Festival and Conference: “Traditions of Spain and Latin Flavors.”
AGA is part of a network of five groups of producers with a production capacity of 150 tons. They aim to have 72 franchises open by the end of 2010. AGA will then work to open exclusive gourmet restaurants featuring native corns in Mexico. Finally, the company will develop a large-scale industrial line of native corn products.
