On April 12, 1926, Modesto Cabal Galindo founded the Sociedad Agrícola e Industrial del Valle S.A., now Ingenio Providencia.
Eight hectares of land were allocated in the township of El Placer for the construction of the Instituto Técnico, Comercial e Industrial Providencia.
Land was donated in El Cerrito to support the Cincuentenario housing project.
