For Mauricio Sánchez Botello, vice-president of Coparmex Querétaro, there are no magic formulas to achieve success in any area of life. Good work performance, patience and passion are essential elements to achieve business success, although he recognizes that the road is not easy.

Mauricio Sánchez was born in Mexico City, although he has lived in Querétaro since he was 6 years old. He graduated with a degree in Business Administration from the Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, Querétaro campus. He currently holds the position of commercial director at Productos Pennsylvania, a leading company in its field, dedicated to the manufacture of sealants for construction and industry.
History.
Productos Pennsylvania is a family business founded by Mr. Juan Sánchez Renero in 1949. Originally, its main activity consisted in the manufacture of mastic, a putty used to fix the windows of Mexican homes at that time. It was in the early 80’s that Don Juan decided to sell the company, which was sold in installments to Don José Antonio Sánchez Botello, Mauricio’s father.
From that moment on, the company began a great transformation since mastic began to decrease in demand, so they had to adapt to the new market demands and begin to create new products and look for new technologies.
Thus, they began to manufacture sealants, silicones, packaging, industrial tapes, among other products, having as their main market aluminum and glass distributors, hardware stores, the construction industry and stores specializing in the sale of household and construction items.
In 1986 they decided to move their plant to the city of Queretaro. Currently they have offices in the city of Queretaro, Monterrey and Guadalajara.
A year away from its 70th anniversary, Productos Pennsylvania exports its products to Central America and this year began an expansion project in the United States and Canada.
His entrepreneurial vision.
From a very early age, Mauricio Sánchez knew that he wanted to dedicate himself to the business world, largely thanks to the influence of his father, who is the company’s CEO. As a university student, he was able to join the workforce of his father’s company, where he learned about different areas, such as accounting, purchasing and warehousing, until an opportunity was created in the commercial area, where he currently works.
For him, being part of Productos Pennsylvania is something that fills him with satisfaction.
“It is very satisfying to be able to work in this company. Since I was a child, I saw the example of my father, who instilled in me the passion for his work,” he shares.
He considers that part of the charm of the business world is the dynamism that is experienced on an everyday, since every day he faces new challenges. This is how they have managed to overcome complicated economic environments that have affected our country in the last 70 years.
“When there is passion, business can thrive because we like what we do,” he says.
Being Coparmex
Mauricio Sánchez Botello has been part of Coparmex for 5 years, an organism he considers very important in the life of the country and the state, since his voice sets trends in governmental decisions.
“I value the existence of a united organization, which makes a common front and seeks better conditions for society in general. I am delighted to participate in the administration of President Lorena Jiménez”.
He applauds the fact that more and more companies are concerned and concerned about their social responsibility, where the care and development of employees occupies a primordial place in corporate policies.
“People are what make companies, so we must work with the environment, so that people feel happy, are healthy, have opportunities for development and find meaning in their work,” said the vice president.
Finally, he acknowledged his passion for Querétaro and for Mexico, a country he considers to be full of opportunities.
