Biography

Gregorio Perez Companc built energy conglomerate Perez Companc and sold it to Brazilian energy giant Petrobas for $1 billion in 2002.

In December 2009, he stepped down from active involvement in business, and gave his 75% stake in food giant Molinos Rio de la Plata to his children.

He had eight children with his wife Maria del Carmen Sundblad Beccar Varela.

He founded the Perez Companc foundation after Margarita, his eldest daughter, died in a car accident in the 1980s.
