History[]

Grupo Bimbo began operations in Mexico on December 2, 1945, with Panificación Bimbo, S.A. as the official name.[12] The company started with 34 employees,[13] selling cellophane-wrapped large and small white loaf bread, rye bread, and toast bread.[14] Lorenzo Servitje Sendra, José T. Mata, Jaime Sendra Grimau, Jaime Jorba Sendra, and Alfonso Velasco, were the partners who started the bakery company.[15]

The name Bimbo was the result of combining the words Bingo, the popular game, and Bambi, the famous Disney movie.[16] This word was chosen among other candidates such as PanRex, Pan NSE (initials in Spanish for Nutritious, Tasty, and Economic), Sabrosoy, Pan Lirio, and Pan Azteca.[17] Later, the founders would find out that bimbo is an Italian slang for children (shortened from bambino), and that in China the phoneme for bread (面包/Miànbāo) is similar to the name of the brand.[18]

The brand's ambassador, the Bimbo Bear, was also created in 1945.[19] It all began with a bear drawing in a Christmas Card given to Jaime Jorba. Anita Mata, Jaime Sendra's wife, was the one who added distinct features such as the hat, the apron, and the bread under its arm.[20] Finally, Alfonso Velasco rearranged the shape of the nose to reflect the cleanness, whiteness, and softness.[21]

Early years[]

By 1948, Grupo Bimbo had nine different products like white bread, toast bread, black bread, sweet bread, buns, and muffins.[22] Thanks to the production growth, in 1949, the first foreign agency was opened in Puebla, Mexico.[23]

By the 1950s, Grupo Bimbo took its products to more people with the "38", a delivery truck with speakers that helped promote the products.[24] Shortly afterward, the portfolio extended with the addition of Bimbo Bear Donuts, Bimbollos, Medias Noches (hot dog bread), and Colchones.[25]

On its 10th anniversary, in 1955, Grupo Bimbo had 700 employees and 140 vehicles.[26] In 1956, the company opened Bimbo de Occidente (Bimbo of the West) factory with Roberto Servitje as its general manager,[27] and, in 1958, launched Gansito, a chocolate-covered snack cake filled with strawberry jam and cream.[28]

1960 – 1970[]

In the 1960s, Grupo Bimbo kept expanding with its arrival in Monterrey, Mexico, and its first administrative restructuring in 1963, which lead to the creation of its corporate structure.[29] A year later, in 1964, the company acquired the rights in Mexico of Quality Bakers of America's brand, Sunbeam.[30]

In the 1970s, the company had significant growth in several areas. In 1971, Barcel, one of its most important brands, began operations; In 1972, it opened its bakery plant located in Azcapotzalco, Mexico City, the largest in Latin America and one of the 10 largest in the world, at the time.[31]

During this decade, Grupo Bimbo entered the marmalade market with Carmel (1973); inaugurated Suandy and Tía Rosa (1974),[32] began the production of Conchas Bimbo (1975);[31] and launched Ricolino, the company's leading sweets and chocolate brand, and Bubulubu with it (1978).[33] By the end of the 1970s, Grupo Bimbo was formed by 3 companies, 12 plants, and 15,000 employees; during this time, Roberto Servitje was appointed CEO.[34]

1980 – 2000[]

At the beginning of the 1980s, Grupo Bimbo presented relevant internal and external changes. It started quoting on the Mexican Stock Exchange, trading 15% of its shares,[35] and in 1986 a new organizational structure was generated, from which a single industrial group was created.[36] In these years, exports to the United States of America began (1984);[37] Bimbo Centroamerica was created (1989) with the construction of a plant in Guatemala, which was completed in 1990.[38]

In the early 1990s, Milpa Real tortillas and Lonchibon were added to its brands.[39] In 1993, opened its new corporate building in Santa Fe, Mexico City, and in 1995, acquired Coronado, an enterprise specialized in cajeta-based products.[40] During this decade a further expansion in Latin America took place, with the arrival of Bimbo in Argentina and the opening of the regional corporate (1991),[41] as well as the Ideal plant in Chile (1995).[42] In 1994, Groupo Bimbo purchased La Hacienta, a tortilla maker in California expanding its operations in the U.S. market. In 1997, it furthered its US based offerings to the U.S. bread market with the purchase of Pacific Prides Bakery, San Diego, CA and in 1998 when it purchased Mrs Baird's Bakeries in Texas, Bimbo Bakeries USA (BBU) was born.

Finally, in 1997 Daniel Servitje was appointed the company's CEO, setting a new course for Grupo Bimbo's operations worldwide.[43]

Sustainability[]

Grupo Bimbo manages its environmental actions through the platform A Sustainable Way,[87] formed by four strategic pillars:

Carbon Footprint Reduction[]

Grupo Bimbo set itself the objective of minimizing its environmental impact through the improvement and consolidation of technologies related to renewable energy, energy efficiency, and compensation of resources.[88] To achieve this, the company joined the RE100 pact, committing itself to be 100% renewable by 2025 (energy-wise). The RE100 climate program is made up of large multinational companies to boost their processes with natural energy.[89]

Grupo Bimbo uses air energy provided by wind farms: Piedra Larga (Mexico), Santa Rita East (USA), and three in Argentina. The first, located in the state of Oaxaca, has an installed capacity of 90 MW,[90] which provides energy to 70% of its work centers in Mexico and avoids the annual emission of 180,000 tons of CO2 into the atmosphere.[91] For its part, the second is located in Texas, has a capacity of 100 MW, and supplies 100% renewable energy to its operations in the United States.[92]

In addition, the bakery has the largest electric vehicle fleet in Mexico and one of the most robust in Latin America.[93] It currently has 41 hybrid utility cars and more than 500 electric delivery vehicles,[94] the latter developed by Moldex, a Grupo Bimbo's subsidiary that provides technological solutions.[95] The company committed to growing its electric fleet in Mexico and incorporating 4,000 electric cars by 2024, 1,000 during each year.[96]

Grupo Bimbo also developed Bimbo Solar, a self-supply system inaugurated in 2018 to install solar roofs, more than 71 distributed generation systems, with a capacity of 25 MW, and thus avoid the emission of approximately 21,000 tons of CO2. annually.[97] This program stands out for having a solar roof with 308 panels,[98] in the Grupo Bimbo corporate building in Mexico City; the largest solar roof in Mexico, and the second in Latin America in its Metropolitan Distribution Center;[99] as well as one of the largest solar roofs in Chile.[100]

Water Footprint Reduction[]

Grupo Bimbo focuses its efforts to reduce the water footprint under the following lines of action: reduction of consumption; water treatment and reuse; and new technologies.[101] The company fostered responsible use through dry cleaning techniques, semi-wet formats, or steam.[102] The result of this process has saved the equivalent to 186,000,000 liters since 2016.[103]

The company has standardized the treatment and reuse of water for green areas' irrigation, sanitary services, and vehicle washing.[104] Grupo Bimbo reports that 82% of the water used worldwide is treated in its plants and has also incorporated rainwater in 108 work centers that, during 2019, collected more than 2.5 million rainwater liters worldwide.[103]

Waste Management[]

Grupo Bimbo launched, in 2019, the "Without Leaving a Trace" campaign, to minimize its impact on the environment.[105] Through a Comprehensive Waste Management strategy, the company focuses on packaging innovation, waste reduction and reuse, and post-consumer management.[106] The main goal of this strategy is that, by 2025, 100% of its packaging are recyclable, biodegradable, and/or compostable.[107]

To achieve this, the company has committed to continuously improve its packaging, making use of new technologies to reduce the impact on the environment. Currently, all Grupo Bimbo's packaging in Mexico that can incorporate d2w technology (under the ASTMD 6954-18 standard)[108] is already biodegradable.[109] Additionally, in 2019, Grupo Bimbo developed its first 100% compostable packaging for the brand Vital,[110] which has the OK Compost certificate, for domestic and industrial processes, issued by the TÜV institute in Austria, meaning that it biodegrades and is naturally reintegrated into the environment.[111]

Throughout its value chain, Grupo Bimbo promotes actions to reduce and recycle waste. Its goal is to achieve, at least, 90% waste recycling in its global operations.[112] To achieve this, today it has 43 plants with zero waste to landfills and 144 plants with more than 80% recycling, and it has implemented circular economy projects.[113]

The company also takes part in different post-consumer programs that promote recycling in countries such as Mexico, the United States, Canada, Spain, Portugal, and Brazil.[114]

Natural Capital[]

Grupo Bimbo has promoted an environmental strategy, collaborating with suppliers, focused on caring for biodiversity. The company works with strategic suppliers, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in soy, sesame, and palm traceability programs; with the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) in various sustainable agriculture programs.[115]

Grupo Bimbo focuses on maintaining an environmental balance and, therefore, promotes initiatives such as Reforestamos México AC, created in 2002, whose mission is the conservation of forest ecosystems.[116] From 2012 to 2019, this organization has managed to plant 96,609 trees in various Mexican locations[117] and, in the last year, collaborated with 90 companies to reforest 133.95 hectares of forests in 12 different entities.[114]
