Empresas ICA

Empresas ICA is a construction company that was founded on 4 July 1947, by Mexican civil engineer Bernardo Quintana Arrioja. The company has built multiple landmarks, buildings, and facilities in Mexico, including the Estadio Azteca, the modern Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe and Infiernillo Dam, and internationally, Aguacapa Dam, in Guatemala.

History
ICA was formed and founded after 17 engineers quit their previous jobs. They received their first contract, which was to create the Miguel Alemán Multifamily Urban Center. In 1953, ICA founded two subsidiary companies: Estructuras y Cimentaciones (ECSA) and Conducciones y Pavimentos (IASA), which were made to split the workload of the company. During the 1960s, ICA began to undertake larger infrastructure projects, including the Infiernillo Dam, the Mexico City Metro, and the Estadio Azteca. In 1992, they joined the Mexican Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange.
