San Sebastián

represents more than a workplace.

It is home to 1,030 families, 120 that permanently reside in the plantation, and 910 additional families travel to work and live there during the harvest season.

Ever since the plantation’s origins, the San Sebastián community has always counted with support and an identity. The annual commemoration of its patron saint is an event of its own filled with traditions an is celebrated by all with excitement.

All plantation employees receive benefits in compliance with Guatemalan labor legislation and can count on the following additional benefits:

Primary and secondary school

The doors of the primary school have been open to employee’s children as well as those from neighboring communities for more than 70 years. The Rural Mixed Private School Salvador and Rosario Aris de Falla serves both as primary and secondary schools. It has provided complete education to over 3,500 students through the history of San Sebastián.

Medical Clinic

There’s a medical clinic with a doctor on the plantation so the workers can go for any consultation. A dyspensary with basic medications is also available. Through the Covid-19 pandemic, the clinic’s team has been extremely careful following the health protocols and has provided testing, medical kits, training, constant care, as well as an open channel of communication with all employees of the plantation.

San Sebastián is the largest employment generating company the municipality of San Miguel Dueñas. At the beginning, some workers were granted land for their own crops, many of them obtained decent housing within the plantation and have now retired with social support and securities.
