History
The first Gramovel contract was the construction of a private residence before the population of Lima reached half a million people. When Gramovel merged with Moris y Montero to become Graña & Montero they had already made their first overseas contract. In that year, they decided to construct the city of Talara. In 1983, Graña & Montero met its first 50 years and started a new stage. Graña & Montero has a constantly growing participation in major projects in the country. In 2013 the company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange.[3][4]
Major projects
Graña y Montero has built many large projects such as Larcomar, the Lima Sheraton Hotel, the Jorge Chávez International Airport, El Alto International Airport, the first Sears Roebuck store in Lima, the Four Seasons Hotel in Mexico City, the Interoceanic Highway, linking Peru and Brasil, the Westin Hotel in Lima, the tallest building in the country, the Camisea Gas Project and many big mining projects in Peru and Chile.[5]
On April 23, 2019, the former representative of the Brazilian conglomerate Odebrecht in Peru, Jorge Barata, named G&M as having also paid bribes, in their case in excess of US$3 million during the bids for the construction of the Lima Metro.
