from Sustainability Report 2020
by Sigma
Quality information is proactively presented to our consumers on the nutritional attributes of our products.
Committed to our consumers Compliance with best practices and applicable regulations
Sigma provides clear information, so consumers are better informed about the food they purchase. Likewise, we continuously work to enhance nutrition facts on the labels of our products.
In line with the Nutrition Policy, Sigma effectively communicates the nutritional value of its food products. This contributes to building a closer relationship with consumers by means of innovative communication tools, nutritional education, and through spaces where we can interact with them. By marketing our products in a responsible and transparent way, we empower consumers to make informed choices to achieve a balanced diet and good eating habits.
Our consumers can also contact our Client Service Centers to receive information on our products. In Mexico alone, we responded to more than 246,000 consumer inquiries in 2020 by telephone, email, and social networks.

We ensure every statement made concerning our products complies with international best practices, including Codex Alimentarius, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We also proactively participate in the conversation about the evolution of labeling systems around the world.
Sigma strictly complies with applicable regulations and rapidly adapts to any changes in countries with evolving regulations pertaining to nutrition facts on product labels.
