Ángel Ramírez – the face of Foodcom in Spain
The team is headed by Ángel Ramírez, Country Manager for Spain and Portugal. For four years, he has been developing Foodcom’s presence in the Iberian Peninsula, responsible for the supply of high-quality food, feed, and chemical raw materials.

Social role and development of local talent
Foodcom Malaga operates in a region that struggles with high youth unemployment, which further reinforces the social role of our office. That is why one of our goals is to support local specialists – we create jobs for people who want to develop in international trade, giving them space to learn the profession, get to know the market, and gradually enter the structures of an international organization.
We employ people from Spain, Morocco, the Philippines, and other countries—cultural diversity translates into a better understanding of our customers and greater flexibility in our operations.
