Black Ecco Group is a Mexican conglomerate that started, and currently works in the areas of IT and foods. It was founded in 2010 as an IT company by Rene Quintero, James Kramer Ugarte and Mauricio Martinez in Mexico City, Mexico. It has expanded to the United States.
History[edit]
The conglomerate was founded in 2010 by Rene Quintero, James Kramer Ugarte, both 24 at the time, and Mauricio Martinez after leaving their studies. They decided to venture into the entrepreneurship world starting a company devoted to the electronic purchase and sale of technological items. In 2012, they decided to enter the industry of restaurants, and since the co-founder Rene Quintero's parents were from the Mexican state of Jalisco, they decided to start a restaurant inspired in his roots, called Las Ahogadas de Jalisco. In 2013, the conglomerate, that by then had 4 restaurants and 3 brands, decided to make its first acquisition and bought Iniciativas Gastronomicas Mexican Food SAPI de CV, owner of restaurants La Chinampa and La Sonorita.
During 2014, the company decided to open its first offices outside of the Federal District, in the state of Tabasco, with the intention of giving coverage to Southeastern Mexico regarding their technological requests. At the same time, their food business grew and, by the end of the year, had 8 branches. Regarding both co-founder's beliefs that Mexico lacked entrepreneurs, in 2014, they decided to purchase the Fundación México Diferente AC (FUMED), and give it a twist, to heavily promote the idea of entrepreneurship and consultancy to SMEs.
In 2015, the company expanded to a foreign country for the first time by opening offices in the state of Nevada. Likewise, in early 2015, they acquired Movil Evolution SA de CV, a digital company that expanded the amount of technological products offered by Black Ecco Group.
