Alicorp Logo
The company provides consumer goods such as food and drinks. Initially, it was involved in the production of oil and soap, but the production grew, and the company decided to get to other goods. The company’s staff consists of people with great management skills and special knowledge, which contributes to the effective solution of new tasks and successful growth. Alicorp products are not only sold locally in Peru as well as Brazil, where it has some daughter companies but also exported to other countries, which gives it an additional source of income.
Meaning and History
Alicorp is a South American company founded in Lima, Peru, in 1956. The company’s initial name was Industrias Teodoro Aldude and Anderson, Clayton & Co, but after its acquisition in 1971, the company was renamed Compañia Industrial Peru Pacifico S.A. In 1995, the company changed its name to Consorcio de Alimentos Fabril Pacifico S.A. Finally, the name Alicorp appeared in 1997. Along with name changes, the company has expanded its activities from making oil and soap to the production of other personal care products as well as food, including animal food. It acquired other companies and signed agreements with other companies. In 2007, for instance, Ocean Nutrition Canada (ONC), a provider of MEG-3 branded functional food and dietary supplements, entered into a joint venture with Alicorp. As a result, ONC opened an omega-3 fish oil plant in Peru. The company has several daughter companies, some of which it has sold in the recent decade, and trademarks.
