Built on three generations of produce.
Aquiles Jaime Garza, Jr., known professionally as A. Jimmy Garza, has spent three decades building and advising companies across Texas and Mexico. His work spans food and beverage, agri-business, retail, and finance, plus civic and political work in both countries.
The Garza story in produce begins half a century earlier. Jimmy's father, A. Jaime Garza, Sr., learned the trade at Teddy Bertuca Company, one of the most prominent shippers in the Rio Grande Valley, before founding Bebo Enterprises in Pharr. Jimmy grew up in the trucks, the packing houses, and the fields. That foundation runs through everything he builds today.
Jimmy earned a B.B.A. from Baylor University in 1997 and now serves on the Advisory Councils of Baylor's Supply Chain Management and International Business programs. A. Jimmy Garza LLC is the holding entity for his investments, advisory engagements, and civic work, anchored by Peña Garza Consulting, where he is Managing Partner.
Jimmy founded Bebo Fresh and partners with legacy houses like Dixon Boots and Olsen-Stelzer. Through Peña Garza Consulting, he led the U.S. expansion of Tehuacán Brillante into 100+ H-E-B stores and Buc-ee's, with additional distribution at 7-Eleven and Stripes. He has introduced HydroShot and Agua de Piedra to the American premium beverage market. A partnership with Enpramex extends his reach into global trade, energy, and logistics across thirteen countries.
