Group O

Group O is a privately held, family-owned business process outsourcing provider, founded in 1974 and owned by the Ontiveros family. From headquarters operations spanning the United States and Mexico, it delivers end-to-end solutions across four practice areas: supply chain management, packaging, incentive marketing and device lifecycle management. The company employs more than 1,000 professionals.

The business began as Bi-State Packaging, selling packaging materials out of the founder's family station wagon. Its founder, Bob Ontiveros, a second-generation Mexican-American immigrant, had spent seven years working for a local packaging company before starting the firm. John Deere became its first Fortune 500 client within the first year of operation, and packaging remains one of its service lines. Group O is a 100% Hispanic-owned Minority Business Enterprise.

Across its four practices, Group O offers supply chain management solutions as part of its broader portfolio, alongside packaging, incentive marketing and device lifecycle management services. Its client work spans packaging, supply chain and logistics, marketing and incentives, technology services and business process outsourcing, with agriculture and heavy equipment among the industry verticals it serves.

Five decades after its founding, the company remains family owned and has taken no external funding. It describes itself as built on long-term partnerships, continuous improvement, and commitments to clients, communities and diversity.
