More than 40 years ago, in the heart of the Valle de las Manzanas in Cd. Guerrero, Chihuahua, a dream was born, driven by the love for our land and the passion for apples. Our founder, Mr. Héctor González y González, was looking for a way to give added value to this special fruit, and that is how he began to produce sun-dried apples outside his house, located in his orchard “Los Tascates”.
What began as a simple idea, but full of dedication, became a company with deep roots in tradition and effort. Over time, that small project grew and evolved into what is now Pico Largo, a place where we continue to honor the legacy of quality and passion that defines us.
The name of our company is a reflection of our bond with nature and our identity. The word Papigochi, in the Tarahumara language, means “Place of birds Pico Largo”, and is the same name of the river that runs through our valley, nourishing the land where our apples flourish.
Every product we make carries with it a story of effort, tradition and love for what we do. We are proud to be part of this land and to share with the world the richness of our work, always with the same dedication with which it all began.
