About

P&G established its foothold in Chile in 1983 when it entered the market thanks to the acquisition of the Geka Laboratory, a transaction that served as a platform to successfully launch a variety of shampoo and conditioner products. Today, the company holds a dominant position in the local consumer products sector, bringing its full assortment of consumer goods to the market. P&G’s Chilean operation complements its larger Latin American base, which has traditionally been a high priority region for the company and includes presence in Mexico, Venezuela, Peru, Argentina and Brazil. P&G’s Latin American legal function is key to the company’s strategic plans for the region, as its looks for best-in-class legal expertise to help it tackle new regulations and move forward with its projects. Its Chilean legal department is said to be particularly strong, featuring lawyers with, in some cases, several decades of experience in the sector. While the team has to be well versed in every aspect of P&G’s business and product portfolio, knowledge is not the only prerequisite for success, with ingenuity and ability to come up with novel solutions being just as important. It is fair to say that the team’s lead lawyer legal manager Macarena García is an embodiment of these qualities, as she has demonstrated them time-and-time again during her ten-year career at the company. Her colleague Paulina Zuniga is another exceptionally strong lawyer who boasts a career of 28 years at the company.
