In 1992, at the age of 19 Mr. Hernandez took control of his family’s construction companies –established contractors in the sector which had built the United States Embassy in Guatemala among numerous other multinationals buildings.

His entry in the telecommunications sector provided the opportunity for the strategic expansion of the group to international markets. Working as a trusted to provider to many of the region’s largest carriers, the company expanded its offerings to provide not just towers, but solutions meeting the needs of both operators and municipalities. What began as a site acquisition company for telecom operators rapidly transformed into a leading private company of telecommunications infrastructure provider in Latin America offering infrastructure solutions, site planning, and custom execution.
