CSR is now a well-recognized terminology, but such activities have been supported by the Group throughout its history, where focus is been directed towards two main groups, namely our staff, their families and local communities. The efforts made in such areas have proven to be the most effective in terms of achieving sustainable development.

Whilst the Group is established globally, its roots and majority of its activities are based in the Americas, and focus remains on supporting the areas in most need where we are active in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Peru, Mexico and Uruguay. Considerable financial investments are made to support the Group Initiatives, which are complemented by considerable staff support in terms of their voluntary private time investment made to support the process and specific events.
