4.1. Local Suppliers

(GRI 204-1) (SDG 8.3) T : Progress and social welfare T : Creating jobs

We are aware of the impact that we generate in the different places in which we operate by our contribution to the local economy, purchasing products and services from the countries in which we are located. • In Guatemala 97% are local suppliers. • In Nicaragua 88% are local suppliers. • In Honduras 64% are local suppliers. • In Costa Rica 97% are local suppliers. In order to collaborate with the development of local suppliers in the areas where we operate, we are working on the Supplier Development Program, which seeks to provide support to improve local supplier processes and generate positive impacts in our company, neighboring communities, the environment and safety.
