Company Overview

Grupo Industrial Saltillo, S.A.B. de C.V. (GIS) is a Mexico-based industrial manufacturing company primarily operating in the automotive components and construction-related materials industries. The company’s core activities focus on the design, manufacturing, and commercialization of high-value metal components for global automotive OEMs, along with consumer and industrial products for residential and infrastructure construction markets. GIS is publicly listed on the Mexican Stock Exchange (BMV) under the ticker GISSA (also referenced internationally as GISMF).

The company traces its origins to 1928 in Saltillo, Coahuila, Mexico, beginning as a regional foundry operation. Over several decades, GIS evolved through vertical integration, product diversification, and international expansion. A pivotal transformation occurred in the 2010s as the company streamlined its portfolio, divesting non-core assets and consolidating its strategic focus on automotive components through its global subsidiary Draxton, positioning itself as a Tier 1–Tier 2 supplier with advanced metallurgical and machining capabilities.
