“Nos complace reportar un crecimiento de doble dígito en las ventas del trimestre, lo que refleja en gran medida la efectividad de la estrategia comercial en México así como el beneficio del efecto calendario de la Semana Santa. Si bien los márgenes estuvieron presionados debido a costos más altos, así como a un mayor impacto de la estacionalidad en la categoría de helados, confiamos en que nuestra estrategia operativa apoyará el desempeño del año”
