History

In 1947 José Panizo Vargas, a successful entrepreneur in Ica Peru, gained a franchise to bottle Coca-Cola for the Department of Ica. For 26 years, under the management of his son Jorge Panizo Mariategui, Coca-Cola was the market leader in the area.Don Jorge S.A.C. History
/ref> In 1973 the military government threatened to ban the Coca-Cola brand from the Peruvian market. Under these circumstances Jorge Panizo Mariategui negotiated with Don Isaac Lindley, at the request of the latter, the franchise of Inca Kola in the Department of Ica. For 27 years the company bottled and distributed Inca Kola in the area, once again managing to obtain market leadership. In 2000 Inca Kola was absorbed by The Coca-Cola Company. Coca-Cola negotiated for several months with its bottlers, and Embotelladora Don Jorge decided the conditions that Coca-Cola sought to impose on bottlers to continue with the franchise were unacceptable. With 53 years experience in the sector, Jorge Panizo Mariategui decided that the company would launch its own brands from its plant in Ica to supply the large domestic market. In 2002 Embotelladora Don Jorge S.A.C. operations began in Lima with a large investment in locale, machinery and infrastructure. The company produces Peru Cola and Isaac Kola among other brands. In 2003, Embotelladora Don Jorge S.A.C. decided to take the lead in creating more nutritional and functional products through the addition of soluble fiber in its soft drinks.
