We believe in the transformative power of sustainable business. We are an international holding company guided by a single purpose: to generate well-being in communities and promote development in the territories where we operate, while ensuring the profitability of our operations and the protection of our environment. Our approach to evaluating and managing investments is based on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria, which allows us to identify opportunities in a comprehensive manner. We support and promote projects that are aligned with long-term sustainability principles and have a positive impact on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
In 2024, this commitment materialized with the updating of our material priorities, a process that consists of identifying and prioritizing the issues that are most relevant to both our organization and our stakeholders due to their impact on the business and their importance to society and the environment. This exercise strengthened our roadmap and consolidated the participation of our strategic allies, allowing us to redefine priorities together with internal and external experts.
In the environmental field, we work on nature-based solutions, with a focus on climate action, water conservation, biodiversity preservation, promotion of the circular economy, and regenerative soil management.
Regarding the social component, we have strengthened our commitment to well-being and equal opportunities through programs that promote youth and female employment.
Within local communities, we promote a model of Comprehensive Territorial Development through our foundation in Colombia. This work is aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Internal Development Goals (IDGs), and seeks to strengthen the resilient social fabric, promote community well-being, and contribute to the development of the territories in which we operate.
On the business front, we work to strengthen our value chains and build trusting relationships with customers. Supplier engagement is based on processes and standards that ensure a comprehensive analysis aimed at identifying strategic partners who contribute to competitiveness and share the holding company’s vision of sustainable growth.
With a long-term vision and guided by our purpose, we will continue working hand in hand with our employees, communities, and strategic partners, driven by the conviction that investments truly matter when they generate well-being.
