Ibero Americana

What Ibero Americana does

Ibero Americana (legal name: Ialca, Ibero Americana Licores, C.A.) is a Venezuelan wine and liquor import and distribution company headquartered at an industrial warehouse (Galpón N° 1, Industrial Parinza) in Guatire, Edo. Miranda. The company imports wines and liquors from international producers and distributes them through its warehouse facility on a direct B2B basis to retailers, restaurants, hotels, and hospitality businesses across Venezuela. Its commercial portfolio encompasses at least 10 brand lines and a catalog of 31 bottled product variations, spanning four wine categories — Blanco (white), Tinto (red), Rosado (rosé), and Clarette — alongside assorted liquors.

The company's business model is wholesale distribution with transaction-fee revenue derived from selling imported product to resellers; pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated on a volume and customer-relationship basis. Go-to-market is executed through a single direct B2B distribution channel at domestic (Venezuelan) geographic scope, supplemented by a modest digital presence via the corporate website (ialca.com.ve), Facebook (IberoAmericanaLicores), and Twitter (@ialca). The website also publishes an educational Wine Guide covering wine varieties and food pairings to support channel pull-through and consumer wine-culture awareness. Ibero's stated differentiators are its professional workforce and documented market permanence, an established import and distribution network, and a diverse portfolio of brands. No public technology stack, proprietary platform, patents, trademarks, certifications, or external partnerships are disclosed in the source data.

The company operates as a private Venezuelan corporation (Compañía Anónima structure) with approximately 65 employees, no disclosed parent company, no subsidiaries, and no funding history. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, no executive leadership team is listed in the source data, and contact channels are limited to a general inbox and two Caracas-area phone numbers. Operational status is confirmed active via a functioning website with product catalog and contact information. Note: a firmographic entry lists "Los Angeles, California, United States" as the city/country, but all other data — legal entity, office address, phone country code (+58), website TLD (.ve), and country code (VEN) — places operations firmly in Venezuela; the firmographic location appears to be a data quality artifact rather than an indication of US operations.
