Our history
Six decades of growing without rushing
Que Rico was founded in 1961, when Luis Juan Macchi opened his first farm in General Rodríguez with just 1,500 hybrid chickens and a clear vision: to produce quality chicken on an industrial scale, following the standards set in Europe and the United States.
More than six decades later, we are still a third-generation family business with a fully integrated production process: from breeder farms to our processing plant, and from distribution with our own fleet to our customers' tables. We control every stage to guarantee the quality and traceability of every product.
Over the years, our growth has gone beyond production. It also includes the people who work alongside us, the communities where we operate, and the relationships we have built with our customers and partners. That is an essential part of who we are.
