Pillars of Social Responsibility

GRUMA promotes a sustainable approach in its operations by making business decisions that ensure a positive impact and mitigate risks while creating value, enhancing competitiveness, and sustainable growth.

The Company has integrated its Social Responsibility action pillars into an ESG Model, herewith presented.

Pillar 1. Business Ethics

Large companies thrive due to the trust of their customers, consumers, employees, suppliers, investors, and communities. GRUMA has earned that trust and a reputation for integrity for more than seven decades and will continue working to uphold it.

Pillar 2. Promotion of Human Rights

At GRUMA, fostering a culture of respect for human rights, as well as staying vigilant of their preservation both within its operations as well as in its day-to-day actions, is essential to create an inclusive work environment, attract and retain talent, and contribute to the integral well-being of employees and communities.

Pillar 3. Health, Nutrition, and Safety

GRUMA’s growth strategy is firmly planted in its vision of nurturing the heart of its consumers. This is the foundation of its business philosophy and its performance as an international Company. Protecting the health and safety of its employees, customers, suppliers, and consumers leverages its business continuity and allows the Company to offer the best quality, reaffirming its leadership position as one of the most responsible multinational food companies.

Pillar 4. Teaming up with Nature

Since its foundation, GRUMA has been a company convinced of the fundamental importance of sustainability and responsible practices, as well as fulfilling the commitment to support the planet and its natural resources. Efficiency and process improvement is part of the way it operates. The Company recognizes the environmental impacts of its operations, the importance of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, its water and non-renewable energy consumption, as well as promoting sustainable agriculture and preserving biodiversity. As part of this responsibility, GRUMA constantly invests internal and external resources to identify opportunities for improvement and mitigation.
