Grupo Bimbo: Meet the Mexican CEO Who Made Your English Muffin

It may say Thomas’ English Muffins, but the company behind the iconic breakfast food is 100 percent Mexican.

Slowly but surely, through acquisitions and determination, Grupo Bimbo of Mexico is now the largest bakery company in the world—selling even more in the United States than they do in its home market Mexico. Listed on the Mexican stock exchange, Bimbo brought in $13 billion in revenue last year, $6 billion of which came from its U.S. operations.

Fiber One muffins, recently discovered on a shopping trip, taste BETTER to me than Thomas. And cost less.
