This model rates products on a scale from 0.5 to 5 stars based on their full nutritional profile; products that achieve 3.5 stars or higher are considered to have a verifiably optimal nutritional quality.In addition, Grupo Bimbo reported that 100% of its everyday consumption portfolio is free from artificial colorants, and 99% contains no artificial flavorings. The company also continues to make progress toward ensuring that its entire global portfolio is free from artificial colors by 2026. Additionally, 48% of its total net sales correspond to products with optimal nutritional quality.The Company’s work in nutrition was recognized by the Access to Nutrition Initiative (ATNi), an independent foundation based in the Netherlands that evaluates the world’s 30 largest food companies.
