Grupo Coppel plans to invest 14.3 billion pesos in Mexico to expand its commercial infrastructure and enhance digital sales capabilities by 2030.
Grupo Coppel has announced an investment of 14.3 billion pesos in Mexico this year, aimed at expanding its commercial infrastructure, boosting its technological capabilities, and increasing the use of clean energy. This investment is aligned with the company's strategic goal for digital sales to account for 20% of total revenues by 2030, alongside a commitment to ensure that 30% of its energy consumption comes from clean sources by that same year. The announcement was made through a company statement, outlining the financial allocation as part of a broader transformation plan projected at 80 billion pesos set to unfold over the 2026-2030 period.
The investment underscores Grupo Coppel's confidence in Mexico's economic landscape and its commitment to growth. It is projected to create an additional 2,500 direct jobs in 2026, adding to the existing workforce of over 130,000 employees, thereby reinforcing the company's position as one of Mexico's top ten employers. The decision to allocate a significant portion of the budget—43%—to infrastructure demonstrates the company's focus on enhancing its operational capacity to better serve its customer base.
Moreover, the investment reflects a broader trend within the retail sector towards sustainability and digitalization, factors that have become increasingly critical in today’s marketplace. By integrating clean energy practices and advancing technological capabilities, Grupo Coppel is not only preparing for market demands but also contributing to broader environmental goals, positioning itself as a leader in corporate responsibility within the Mexican retail landscape.
