The origins of GLOBAL GOLD & OIL date back to 1849, near the Sacramento Mountains, when José González discovered several gold nuggets while developing newly claimed land. Alongside this discovery, he established a small lumber business, choosing to quietly strengthen his commercial activities while laying the foundation for what would become a family enterprise built on hard work, integrity, and long-term vision.
As the California Gold Rush transformed the region, the González family expanded its commercial activities between California and Mexico. Through successive generations, the business evolved, adapting to changing markets, expanding its international reach, and preserving its connection to the precious metals industry.
Over time, the organization diversified its operations, incorporated new business sectors, and strengthened its international presence, ultimately evolving into the company known today as GLOBAL GOLD & OIL.
Today, the company continues building on that legacy by participating in international commodities trading, infrastructure development, energy projects, aviation solutions, and advanced security technologies while maintaining the values that have guided its growth for generations.
