Ethics and Corporate Integrity

Message from the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the CEO of Grupo Gigante

For Grupo Gigante, the welfare of our customers, employees, and the communities where we operate has always been a premise, as well as promoting and maintaining long-term business relationships with our suppliers, creditors, and contractors, in strict compliance with our Code of Ethics and Conduct and Anti-Corruption Policy. The behavior of all our employees reflects the culture of Grupo Gigante, its subsidiaries, and associated companies.

At Grupo Gigante, we comply with all applicable laws, rules, policies, and regulations, and we hold ourselves to the highest ethical and compliance standards, which is why it is a source of great satisfaction and commitment for us to share with you the Code of Ethics and Conduct, which guides our way of acting on the principles and values in the daily occurrence of our work. In this sense, we extend it to all third parties with whom we have commercial relationships, seeking to create a community that operates under the same fundamentals that are important to us.

To ensure that this is done, we have established these guidelines and recommendations and invite you to make them your own, to help us monitor and implement them.

At Grupo Gigante, we have adopted a zero-tolerance commitment to corruption and bribery. In order to strengthen communication channels, we have designed institutional reporting mechanisms, which we encourage you to use in case you identify acts or events contrary to our policies and the Code of Ethics and Conduct. Understanding our code and adhering to it is the responsibility of all of us who collaborate and interact with Grupo Gigante.

We count on your support, and we are confident that we will maintain Grupo Gigante and its subsidiaries and associated companies in the leadership positions we hold in the various sectors where we participate, always in accordance with our principles and values.

Please accept the greetings, recognition and commitment of the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Grupo Gigante.
