For over 40 years, Empresas Agrícola San Pablo Inc., a family-owned business based in the mountains of Lares, Puerto Rico, has been a trusted provider of high-quality agricultural inputs and a leader in greenhouse construction. Founded by the late Pedro Vázquez and now led by his daughter, Paula Vázquez, the company offers both wholesale and retail products, along with exclusive international machinery.
When Empresas Agrícola San Pablo sought assistance in transferring their SAM administrator to Paula Vázquez—a process that took several months—the company turned to the Puerto Rico FECC-Apex Accelerator for support. Once the SAM registration was completed, a timely opportunity emerged: the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) sought contractors for greenhouse construction at the Morovis Cemetery. Recognizing the potential, Paula Vázquez enlisted the guidance of the FECC-Apex Accelerator. Counselor Adriana Acarón played a crucial role in helping the company navigate the complexities of the VA solicitation and proposal process.
Thanks to this invaluable support, Empresas Agrícola San Pablo successfully secured the VA contract for greenhouse construction at the Morovis Cemetery. This achievement marks a significant milestone for the company, underscoring their expertise in greenhouse construction and opening new doors within the federal contracting sector. Empresas Agrícola San Pablo Inc. is now confidently undertaking this important project, excited about the opportunities ahead.
