Professional Life
In 1917, when the family was able to return to Mexico from Boston, the brewery was given back to the Garza Sada family with the intervention of the American and the Russian government. Garza Sada began working at the brewery in Monterrey, where his father was Director-General, the equivalent of a modern CEO. His first job there was in the statistics department, and from there he was promoted to positions of greater responsibility. After his father died, Garza Sada was named the company's Director-General, alternating the job with his brother Roberto.
During their management, they started a large number of businesses to support beer production, such as a glass company to make the beer bottles, which later became Vitro. They also opened Grafo Regia, a business which produced labels for the bottles and boxes for the finished product. He and his brother also founded Hojalata y Lamina de Monterrey, known today by its acronym, HYLSA.

“Human contacts have been so highly valued in the past only because reading was not a common accomplishment.... The world, you must remember, is only just becoming literate. As reading becomes more and more habitual and widespread, an ever-increasing number of people will discover that books will give them all the pleasures of social life and none of its intolerable tedium.”
