Présentation - Copec
Everything is copasetic at Copec, as long as the gas and oil keep flowing. Empresas Copec (formerly known as Compañía de Petróleos de Chile) is the country's #1 importer and distributor of gasoline and petroleum by-products sold through several channels, including its more than 600 gas stations. Copec's interests aren't single-minded, though: The industrial conglomerate owns Celulosa Arauco y Constitución (whose subsidiaries and affiliates cover the spectrum of forestry and wood products manufacturing) and fisheries businesses Corpesca and SouthPacific Korp, or SPK. Other interests include mining, electricity, and retail holdings. Chile's Angelini family (through AntarChile) controls some 60% of Copec.
