The U.S. Department of the Treasury today announced the designation of German Alberto Perez Ocampo, a prolific cocaine supplier to Mexican cartels for more than a decade, pursuant to the Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act (Kingpin Act). In addition, and also under the Kingpin Act, Treasury is designating German Alberto Perez Ocampo’s brother, Santiago Perez Ocampo, and one Colombian import company, Compra Venta Gerpez. As a result of today’s action, all assets of those designated today that are based in the United States or are in the control of U.S. persons are frozen, and U.S. persons are generally prohibited from engaging in transactions with them. German Alberto Perez Ocampo is being designated for his role as a significant international narcotics trafficker and for his ties to the Sinaloa Cartel. He is a major cocaine supplier to Sinaloa Cartel leader, Ismael “El Mayo” Zambada Garcia. German Alberto Perez Ocampo has also partnered with numerous international drug trafficking organizations, including the Beltrán Leyva Organization and La Familia Michoacana in Mexico, Los Cachiros in Honduras, and Los Urabeños in Colombia. The President identified all of these organizations as significant foreign narcotics traffickers between 2007 and 2013. German Alberto Perez Ocampo is the sole administrator and chief executive of Compra Venta Gerpez, a Tuluá, Valle, Colombia, import and article resale company that the Treasury Department is designating today.
