The present operation consists of long-term financing for Establecimientos Ancalmo, S.A. de C.V. (“Ancalmo”) for: (i) the construction of a new pharmaceutical plant, and (ii) the acquisition of machinery and equipment with new production technologies, to enhance productive capacity and optimize resources.With this financing, Ancalmo will be able to modernize its manufacturing capabilities and expand its regional reach. This objective will be achieved under greater climate action commitments for Ancalmo and BID Invest, seeking to ensure that the new industrial facilities achieve an EDGE Certificate for sustainable buildings. This will ensure water and energy savings during their construction and operation phases, under international recognition standards.Similarly, the machinery will consider parameters to maximize energy efficiency, also evaluating the feasibility of using solar energy for its operation. These studies and advisories will be provided as part of the non-financial additionalities of BID Invest within the scope of this operation.
