MEXICO CITY — Grupo Bimbo was recognized by the non-governmental organization Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) with an “A” rating for its global efforts to mitigate the effects of climate change.
CDP’s prized “A” rating reflects Grupo Bimbo’s commitment to environmental transparency and performance on climate change, deforestation and water security. The score is based on how companies report their progress and whether they do so with full transparency and clear objectives. Grupo Bimbo was the only Mexican food company to achieve this award.
“We are very proud to receive, for the first time, this high rating that CDP gives to companies working to make this a better world,” said Rafael Pamias, executive VP and chief sustainability officer of Grupo Bimbo. “A year ago, Grupo Bimbo made a firm commitment to become a company with zero net carbon emissions by 2050, setting goals validated by science-based targets, driving us to generate actions throughout our value chain and thus continue to achieve the objectives set out in our sustainability strategy.”
CDP is a non-profit organization that manages and produces analyses allowing listed companies to reveal their environmental impact and compare it to others in the market.
