The team won the 2018 Ascenso MX, but were not promoted to the Liga MX because they did not meet regulations.
On May 28, 2019 the team was moved to Tuxtla Gutiérrez and was renamed as Cafetaleros de Chiapas. The team was relocated to meet the requirements required to promote to the Liga MX. Also, the team changed its colors, originally green and black to gold and black.
