Challenges of the sustainability strategy
In Grupo Éxito, we promote sustainability through initiatives that generate value for Nourishing Colombia with Opportunities by promoting economic growth, social development, and environmental protection in Colombia. We do this through six challenges: generation with zero chronic malnutrition in 2030, promote sustainable trade, reduce the ecological impact on Mi Planeta, encourage healthy living, labour welfare because the success of Grupo Éxito is in its people and have the best business practices with Somos Íntegros.
Together with Fundación Éxito, we call on different sectors to commit to child nutrition and to achieve the first generation with zero chronic malnutrition by 2030, as a way to combat social inequality.

• Generate and disseminate knowledge

• Communicate and raise awareness
• Influence public policy

• Conduct sustainable audits
