Grupo Punto Alto

What Grupo Punto Alto does

Grupo Punto Alto (GPA) is a privately held Mexican industrial holding company headquartered in Chihuahua, formalized in 2015 with operational roots tracing to the 1958 founding of COPACHISA under the Terrazas family. The group consolidates 14 operating companies across 7 industrial plants and employs more than 2,000 people, organized around four core verticals: construction and infrastructure (heritage COPACHISA plus specialized design and high-voltage electrical subsidiaries including SPEC and D-Alta), metalworking and aerospace manufacturing (Premet, Altaser, KAT), real estate development, and financial services via the SOFOM Factor GFC Global. Its customer base is concentrated in Mexico and spans federal utilities (CFE), large mining operators (Peñoles, First Majestic), FMCG (Heineken), international EPC contractors (Gilbane Alberici), and academic clients (ITESM, UACH).

The group's revenue model combines project-based construction and infrastructure contracts with recurring manufacturing output from steel and aerospace fabrication, supplemented by factoring and working-capital financing through its SOFOM. It has invested in operational scale enablers including an enterprise-wide SAP ERP deployment (Go-Live 2018) and BIM for construction design, holds F.M. Approvals and ISO 9001 certifications for its manufacturing operations, and has positioned itself on ESG dimensions via UN Global Compact adherence and ESR (Empresa Socialmente Responsable) recognition. Operations span more than 15 Mexican states, giving GPA multi-regional bidding reach for both public infrastructure tenders and private industrial contracts. The holding structure is family-controlled, with Alberto Terrazas S. as CEO, and there is no public disclosure of consolidated revenue, funding history, or external shareholders.
