Mercico is highly committed to social awareness. We are linked in the program committed to the House of Commerce and sponsored by the BID, whose main fronts are management and corporate governance, human rights and internal organization, suppliers and value-chain, environment, goods and services, and community.
As to facts that demonstrate our social responsibility are that we can say that over 90% of our workers are women who are householders.
