MMC Automotriz S.A.[1] is an automobile manufacturer from Venezuela.
The company is headquartered in Caracas and belonged to Sojitz until the end of 2015.[1] It was founded in 1990. The basis was an agreement between the factory owner CIF and the Japanese group Iwai (predecessor of Sojitz), which increased their initial equity stake of 49% over time to 98%. The production of automobiles by Mitsubishi Motors also started in 1990.[2] The work is located in Barcelona.[2]
