GRUMA ANNOUNCES THE ACQUISITION

OF THE LEADING TORTILLA MANUFACTURER IN RUSSIA

Monterrey, N.L.,

Mexico, July 13, 2011. GRUMA, S.A.B. de C.V. (''GRUMA'') (NYSE: GMK, BMV:

GRUMAB) announced today the acquisition of Solntse Mexico, the leading tortilla

manufacturer in Russia, for US$7 million.

Based in Russia, Solntse Mexico is a tortilla company that manufactures and

sells mainly wheat flour tortillas, corn tortillas and corn chips, among other

products, under the brand ''Delicados''. The company introduced the tortillas

and corn chips to the Russian market and currently commands the leading market

position in that country's retail and foodservice segments. During 2010,

Solntse's net sales totaled US$9 million.

This acquisition is an important step for GRUMA, representing the company's

entry into Russia, a country in which tortilla and chip consumption is becoming

very popular and in which GRUMA had until now a presence only through exports.

This acquisition is consistent with, and supports, GRUMA's overall strategy to

take advantage of opportunities and synergies worldwide.

GRUMA is one of the

world's leading tortilla and corn flour producers. GRUMA was founded in 1949 and

is engaged primarily in the production, marketing, distribution, and sale of

tortillas, corn flour, and wheat flour. With leading brands in most of its

markets, GRUMA has operations in the United States, Mexico, Venezuela, Central

America, Europe, Asia, and Australia and exports to 105 countries worldwide. GRUMA is headquartered in Monterrey, Mexico, and has approximately 20,000

employees and 96 plants. In 2010, GRUMA had net sales of US$3.8 billion, of

which 67% came from non-Mexican operations.
