At Grupo JUMEX, we recognize that water is essential for life on the planet and human development, and we assume the responsibility and commitment to contribute to the conservation of water resources and guarantee their availability for future generations.

In line with our sustainability strategy, we carry out monitoring and measurement of our water consumption and promote initiatives focused on the use of this resource in our operations, including:

Grupo JUMEX Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP)

Our wastewater treatment systems allow us to reuse this resource in our operations and ensure that its discharge complies with the quality parameters dictated by government authorities.

Water discharge

One of the greatest challenges we faced concerning water in 2022 was the drought emergency that occurred in the state of Nuevo León, which had significant repercussions on the operations of our Monterrey plant.

To deal with this situation and mitigate its impact, at Grupo JUMEX, we executed the following actions:

• • The approval of the project to install a water recovery system at the Monterrey plant that will save over 33.3 million liters of water per year.
• • The implementation of the Clean in Place (CIP) fruit cleaning and disinfection optimization project saved over 56.9 million liters of water at the Monterrey and Chihuahua plants.
