Abstract
Federico Sisniega, an Spanish inmigrant, arrived in Chihuahua as a national
bank branch manager in 1888. He very soon became an important businessman due to
his alliance with Luis Terrazas, owner of more than four million acres and a million
head of liveslock, and Enrique C. Creel, head of the local bourgeoisie. They conducted
an economic transformation in Northern México which allowed them to enter into national and American markets. In the earlier 20th century, these investors controlled
banking, textiles, meat, beer, wheat flour, and telephones in Chihuahua and nearby
States. The Mexican Revolution (1910-1920) determined the end of this notable
enterprise.
