The Chuy family originally came from the region around China/Hong Kong. The current owner, Pablo Chuy’s grandfather relocated during the Opium Wars, married a local Guatemalan lady and started a family. During his time in Guatemala, he become known as a philanthropist – assisting the locals with developing the area and cultivating various crops.

He eventually returned to China, leaving his family behind to carry on in his footsteps. Three generations later, all members of the family are involved in the running of the farm as well as the family’s construction business.
