History
Club de Fútbol Cafetaleros de Tapachula was founded on May 25, 2015 after Altamira based Estudiantes de Altamira announced the relocation of the club to Tapachula, Chiapas due to economic reasons.[3] On June 7, 2015, the club's relocation to Tapachula was made official by the Liga de Ascenso de México.[4]
The team won the 2018 Ascenso MX, but were not promoted to the Primera División de México because they did not meet regulations.[5]
On May 28, 2019 the team was moved to Tuxtla Gutiérrez and was renamed as Cafetaleros de Chiapas. The team was relocated to meet the requirements required to promote to the Liga MX.[6] Also, the team changed its colors, originally green and black to gold and black.[7]
On June 28, 2024 Cafetaleros de Chiapas was renamed Jaguares F.C. Premier.[8] Originally, the team would be a reserve team of a Liga de Expansión MX club named Jaguares.[9] However, on July 12, 2024 the project was rejected in the second tier of Mexican football, so finally Jaguares began competing in the Liga Premier – Serie A using the Cafetaleros de Chiapas franchise.[10]
