Pulquemania value proposition

In «Pulquemanía» we generate around 100 jobs, between direct and indirect, from the tlachiquero and master pulquero, dedicated to obtaining the mead and making pulque, respectively, to qualified personnel – food engineers and pharmacist chemists in charge of the quality of «Penca Larga» -; as well as warehouse and production workers, administrative team, sales force, freelance collaborators and advertising agencies in Mexico and the United States

«Pulquemanía» arose with the task of forming an industry around honey water and its derivatives through engineering and development (fermented and distillates, among others) and with this establish the permanence of bottled pulque in the market for low alcoholic beverages in Mexico

Although «Pulquemanía» is not the first company dedicated to producing, packaging, selling and exporting pulque (since there has been evidence of various undertakings since the last century), we can ensure that we distinguish ourselves as the largest and strongest bottled pulque producer in Mexico.

On the other hand, a pre-Hispanic legend relates that the god «Ehécatl-Quetzalcóatl», eager to bring happiness to humanity, gave him the agave, as this, in addition to a source from which to extract liquor, served for daily sustenance, since from the plant you can get items for food, clothing and housing.
