Grupo Bimbo in 2009 the revenue of the company rose 41.3% in respect to the previous year. Even though the effects of the economic crisis started to be felt, due to large acquisitions that Grupo Bimbo had in US and the launch of new products, the revenue almost doubled.
In 2012, an important growth was also registered, 29.7%, in respect to the previous year. In the US,sales rose to 46.7% over 2011, as a result of the acquisition of the Sara Lee and to slightly favourable exchange rates. Consequently, the operations of Grupo Bimbo in the US have overtaken the ones in Mexico. Mexico’s net sales also rose 9.5% over the previous year, reflecting stable volume growth supported by ongoing sales and the effort to improve the operations. The deep penetration in the Latin American countries, as well as the integration of the business in Iberia, complemented the strong growth in this year.
