Encyclopedia > Juan Jose Gutierrez

Juan Jose Gutierrez (b. 1958) was born in Guatemala. He is a member of the board of Corporación Multi Inversiones (CMI), a large agro-industrial conglomerate which according to an article in El Diario de Hoy, one of the largest circulating newspapers in El Salvador, is one of the most powerful corporations in Central America. Founded in 1920, CMI now accounts for more than 30,000 employees, operating in 14 countries within six divisions: poultry and pork; Pollo Campero fast food restaurants; flour mills, pasta and cookie production; construction; power generation; and financial services. He is the President of Pollo Campero, which was founded in 1971 by Mr. Gutierrez’s father and is one of the largest Guatemalan fast food chains. While the business now comprises over 190 restaurants in ten countries, it still manages to focus its attention on social initiatives such as supporting education. In January 2007, a survey by the Asociación de Gerentes de Guatemala revealed that, if given the choice, most Guatemalans would choose to work at Pollo Campero. According to Small Business Opportunities Magazine, Pollo Campero serves over 75 million customers per year with over 7,000 employees, opened its first U.S. franchised restaurant in Los Angeles, California, in April 2002, and now has over 30 franchised restaurants in California, New York, Texas and other states. Most recently, according to EKA, La Revista Empresarial, a monthly business magazine from Costa Rica, Pollo Campero has opened its first restaurant in Madrid, Spain, and is expanding to Asia, having already opened its first restaurant in Jakarta, Indonesia. Under Mr. Gutierrez’s leadership, Pollo Campero was declared as one of the top ten companies to work for in a survey conducted by the business publication, Estrategia y Negocios, and Mr. Gutierrez was on the cover of Newsweek as a Super CEO and was named one of their Ten Big Thinkers for Big Business. He is listed as a past president of the Committee of Agriculture, Commerce, Industry and Finance Association (CACIF) on the CACIF website, and is also listed as a past president of the Industry Chamber (Cámara de Industria de Guatemala) on the Industry Chamber’s website. Mr. Gutierrez is a member of the Board of Directors of the Juan Bautista Gutierrez Foundation (Fundación Juan Bautista Gutierrez), which supports community development projects and education. Mr. Gutierrez supports humanitarian causes such as “Teletón” and “Help Me To Live,” which helps low income child cancer patients.
