La Suipachense announced the reopening of the company with the hiring of 53 employees.

In a clear sign that business confidence is back thanks to the macroeconomic order achieved by Javier Milei, the emblematic factory of La Suipachense is preparing to start its engines once again. The company, which was a victim of neglect and poor management associated with the previous regime's ties to chavismo, will begin a new chapter under the leadership of Compañía Láctea Suipacha SA, a company with national capital led by businessman Pablo Asci, who has decided to invest in the country in this new context of market freedom.

The company's downfall was not a coincidence, but rather the direct result of an exhausted business model tainted by intervention. Lácteos Conosur S.A., operated by the Venezuelan group Maralac led by businessmen Manuel Fernández and Alfredo Fernández —also responsible for the crisis at Alimentos Refrigerados S.A.

Before this collapse, a product of the instability left by the Kirchnerist legacy, the plant suffered more than three months of total paralysis, with 140 workers in a desperate sit-in for owed salaries, while production plummeted from 4 million liters per month to just over 2 million.

However, the political paradigm shift has created the necessary investment climate for Compañía Láctea Suipacha SA to sign a two-year lease contract to operate the facilities and use the prestigious brand.

In this reactivation phase, the plant will initially reintegrate 53 employees from the 142 that made up the workforce at the time of closure. Production will start with a processing capacity of 50,000 liters per day of milk, focusing on high-demand products such as long-life milk, powdered milk, and yogurts.

The mayor of Suipacha, Juan Luis Mancini, highlighted the optimism generated by this new phase of private management, stating that the start-up is imminent:
