Don Efesino Fernández Álvarez arrived in Mexico in 1890, after emigrating from Spain due to the severe economic crisis that the country was experiencing. In 1900 he founded the company Efesino Fernández y CIA, later called Casa Fernández and afterwards Sama Semillas Mexicana S.A. de C.V.
In 1978, the company was established as Granos y Semillas de México S.A. de C.V.; initially dedicated exclusively to the sale of grains and seeds.
Over the years and with the incorporation of new shareholders, Granos y Semillas de México has preserved its core business and evolved, introducing DON EFE to the market, a brand offering a wide variety of products, spices, and canned goods. By the year 2000, a new brand named Mr. F was developed.
Currently, Granos y Semillas de México is best known as DON EFE — recognized as a solid, 100% Mexican company that ensures the quality of its products reaches excellence, working with the highest selection processes to provide the best national and international products.
