Wealthy Businessman, Co-owner of Supermarket Chain, Found Dead in His Car
A wealthy businessman and co-owner of the popular Soriana grocery chain, has been found dead in his vehicle in Torreón, Coahuila. A member of Organización Soriana and Tiendas Soriana, C.M.B., was found dead inside his VW Touareg. Photos from the scene show him being shot in what media reports are saying was a suicide. This has not been confirmed or denied by police. The Soriana company originated in Torreón, Coahuila in 1968 and was founded by the brothers Francisco and Armando Martín Borque. There are 814 stores throughout Mexico. Sounds of gunfire were heard around noon two days ago and a body was found inside a Touareg. The person was found in the driver’s seat with a gunshot on the left side of his head while the engine was running. The businessman was found with a gun, 9mm, in his left hand. It is believed that the shot was self-inflicted. The deceased was also a member of the Board of Directors at Aeromexico, Instituto Tecnologico de Monterrey Campus Laguna, Museum of Torreon and Laguna Economic Fund. In 2015, Soriana purchased 160 stores from La Comercial for $2.6 billion, bolstering its position as the country’s second-largest retail chain behind Wal-Mart de Mexico, and the Family are part of the Top Wealthy families in Mexico according to Forbes. So far, Torreon Prosecution authorities have not issued any statement of this case. |

Fully loaded new one goes around 57 to 62K. Perhaps he was frugal. |

If you flaunt your cash in Mexico, you and your family can get kidnapped, tortured, murdered, etc. Wise people look like they don't have any money at first glance. |
