Jose and Francisco Jose Calderon Rojas, prominent entrepreneurs and businessmen, have amassed an astonishing net worth of $2.9 billion by 2024. Their success can be attributed to their diverse business portfolio, which includes a significant stake in Banorte, one of Mexico's leading banks.

Through their strategic vision and entrepreneurial acumen, they have solidified their position as formidable players in the business world, leaving an indelible mark on the banking industry.
Today FEMSA is a multi-national beverage and retail conglomerate that generates more than $300 billion in revenue every year and employs 18,000 people worldwide. Jose Calderon has actively worked on Coca Cola FEMSA's expansion, making it the largest bottler of Coca-Cola products in the world after a series of acquisitions. In January 2013, Coca Cola FEMSA purchased 51% of Coca-Cola's bottling operation in the Philippines and plans to continue its expansion in Asia. Today FEMSA is expanding into drugstore and restaurant chains in addition to their bottling empire. The Rojas brothers are known to keep a very low public profile despite being two of the 10 richest people in Mexico. They both reportedly reside in Monterrey, Mexico. Contrary to a popular legend, the Rojas brothers are NOT related to Spanish-born NBA star Jose Calderon.
