In 1984, Jesus Leon and his wife Gladys Caceres took on a new journey, in which new challenges were bravely assumed. At that time, Jesus already had acquired a great experience in the mechanical industry, working in different companies as Forjas de Colombia, among others. It was here, in the beautiful city “Bucaramanga”, where half a milling machine combined with the courage of a man and a woman were enough to start what today would become the family pride and courage of those who embark on it.
During the first years, a continuous search for companies was constant but it was the combination with a unique persistence, which make the rubber and plastic industry the main level of entrepreneurship. Despite the progress within these industrial sectors, his tenacity took him further to find that the oil and gas business was opening their doors.
Years later in 1998, the temporary oil and gas crisis would bring to TORFRES a new beginning in the food sector. That is when in 1999 TORFRES would put all its efforts into the poultry sector, at that time this sector was not explored. Since then, TORFRES has grown year over year, as a result of dedication, loyalty, persistence, and tenacity of each one of the members of the TORFRES team.
With its 36 year of experience, today TORFES is stronger than ever, focusing in transcending our own limits, competing transparently within the mechanic industry in the department of Santander and around Colombia with the main objective to transform lives and contribute to the community.
