Wholesale distributor across Argentina and Latin America
Makro Argentina operates a large-scale wholesale network across 25 locations in Argentina as part of the broader SHV Holdings group, which spans five Latin American countries. The company runs SAP at its core—maintaining custom integrations with corporate systems and executing a structured upgrade roadmap—while managing inventory, procurement, and supply-chain coordination challenges typical of multi-location wholesale. Hiring is weighted toward operations and sales roles, with an accelerating pace focused on junior-level fills, suggesting a push to expand distribution capacity.
Makro Argentina is a wholesale distributor and member of the SHV Holdings group, serving professional customers including restaurants, hotels, supermarkets, bakeries, schools, and commercial cleaning businesses across Argentina and five other Latin American countries. The company operates 25 branches distributed across 9 Argentine provinces from its headquarters in Munro, Buenos Aires. The business model centers on providing bulk dry goods, perishables, and non-food items with a mission to lead the wholesale market in Argentina. Makro has grown through acquisitions: it absorbed Basualdo (a cleaning and perfumery wholesaler with 160 employees across four provinces) and Tarquino (another wholesale operator now integrated into the Makro network). The company employs between 1,001 and 5,000 people and was founded in 1988.
Makro runs SAP as its core system, supported by Power BI and MicroStrategy for analytics, Microsoft 365 for productivity, Ariba for procurement, and PeopleSoft for HR. The company actively maintains SAP integrations with corporate platforms and is executing a scheduled upgrade plan.
