    The soft drink industry in Tehuacan

    The terrain of the Tehuacan regionconsists mainly of limestone

    consistency very permeable, whichhas meant that water flows fromrainfall and snowmelt Pico deOrizaba underground courses havewrought over time.When passing through the ground,the waters dissolve carbonates andother salts, which has given rise tothe famous healing mineral waters ofTehuacn which were already knownfrom pre-Cortesian times.

    There have been many studies onthe chemical composition of thewaters of Tehuacan and all showsimilar results in the content ofcalcium and magnesium salts suchas sodium bicarbonates of calciumand magnesium, which gives slightlyalkaline properties.

    It is a known fact that the body's normal metabolism produces abundant acidic

    toxic waste, which in given circumstances may cause acid-base imbalance in thebody causing malaise, digestive disorders and even, chronic degenerativeailments. Drinking a carbonated water as Tehuacan tends to neutralize the acidradicals present in the body restoring balance and acid-base chemistry favoring agradual cure these health problems.

    Groundwater in Tehuacn emerges at various points that give rise to springs,many of which were already known from pre-Conquest times.

    The abundance of water in various parts of the municipality came eight bottling ofmineral water and refreshing flavor that had great height in the domestic market,

    where consumers by saying "give me a Tehuacn" knew distributors related toproduct is bottled at this place.

    The boom in the soft drink industry was from the forties and continued until theeighties, when the bottlers, mostly local and national entrepreneurs, became themain source of employment for male workers, achieving some nearby towns

    inhabitants emigrated to what was used in one of the highest paid activities andbetter employment benefits.

    San MiguelitoColin Joaquin Paredes refers in his research, which was Juan Pita who beganbottling spring water called 'San Miguelito', originally known by the name ofCoyatl, which was located at the foot of the plateau of El Riego, where thentreated water with Red Cross markings and irrigation, which are mainly sold indrugstores and had its lead agency in a drugstore that was opposite the TeatroPrincipal in Mexico.

    El Riego

    In 1933, another plant that started operations in the area known as Calzada de LasPalmas, where the spring was "Virgin of Light", and soon after formed a companycalled "Springs El Riego" SA. We can mention that "The Irrigation" became

    influential in some markets where the brand was accompanied by "Electropura"and "Delaware Punch" which lasted no more than five years since the owners thensold to GEMEX Electropura and Delaware Punch none other than Coca Cola. SoWatering practically disappeared, victim also lifting its returnable glass containers12 ounces, by competitors.

    Garci-Crespo & Peafiel

    It was not until after the Mexican Revolution, when it was thought to invest again atTehuacan. Knowing the virtues and fame of the mineral waters, Mr. Jos Mara

    Garci Crespo de la Vega and Carlos Silva in June 1928 founded the company"Springs of Tehuacan SA" Its objective was mineral water bottle and distributethroughout the center of the country. In 1937 the company changed its name to"Garci Crespo Springs SA de CV and two years later opened the first dealership inthe Valley of Mexico.

    In 1948, Mr. Garci Crespo left the company and with hisdeparture the company decides to change his name to"Peafiel Springs, SA". This name comes from the rock orrock that hinders the undercurrents, and leads to the springs.

    In Tehuacan, Puebla, this rock has brought forth water formany years remained faithful and unchanging, therefore,proposed the name Peafiel.

    In 1980 the company was acquired by the groupregiomontano "Valores Industriales, SA" to reorganize itsstructure and readjusting their work systems. Years later, in1992 the British group created the first soft drink, CadburySchweppes, identifies and acquires its value. With thisprocess, Peafiel Springs adopts the name of CadburySchweppes Beverages Mexico.

    On May 7, 2008, Cadbury Schweppes announced the divestment of beveragesand confectionery. With this process, the company took the name of Dr. PepperSnapple Group (DPSG) and became an independent public company listed on theStock Exchange of New York with the acronym DPS. In Mexico, the business takesits brand name and is called Group leader Peafiel.

    The beginning of the XXI century brought changes in the business model of thebrand Garci Crespo, Enrique Molina has to sell their shares and control of itsbottlers Pepsi Bottilng Group, Pepsi global controller and once again, foreignersdecide to take the bottling mineral water to other plants more efficient than the onelocated in Tehuacan, giving a second blow to the appellation of origin and endingwith the strategy drawn 15 years ago at that time the director of Garci Crespo Mr.Bernardo Trueba.Everything ends historic Garci Crespo plant located in so-called "Manatiales GoodWater" in 2006 when it finally closed its production lines, leaving the brand bottlingplants for Pepsi to other more modern, the spring is just as romantic symbol ofwhat was the splendor of the past.

    It is among the decade of the 70's when 50'sa fame mineral water has its peakTehuacan, even globally and in those years the city's infrastructure grows, bybuilding luxury hotels and even one field golf, all under the sponsorship of powerfuland bottling.
