Sigma to Invest $350 Million in 2025 to Expand Production in Mexico and the US

Sigma Alimentos, a pivotal player in the food industry known for products marketed under brands like FUD, has announced a significant investment of $350 million in 2025. This move aims to expand their production operations across Mexico and the United States as a response to rising demand in these territories.

The company's capital expenditures (CAPEX) for the year 2025 are set to be 43% higher than those in 2024, during which they invested $245 million. This substantial commitment reflects Sigma's strategic initiatives aimed at capacity expansion in both countries, with approximately half of the CAPEX earmarked for strategic projects aimed at bolstering long-term growth.

Sigma projects a 10% increase in revenue this year, expecting to reach $9.7 billion from the $8.8 billion recorded in 2024. Moreover, the company foresees a 4% annual rise in volumes and anticipates more than a 5% increase in operating flow (EBITDA) to reach $1 billion compared to the $1.046 billion reported in 2024.

Despite these optimistic forecasts, Sigma cautions that there may be slight reductions in operating margins in Mexico and the United States due to raw material cost pressures in the Americas region. The firm has also considered a currency exchange rate of 21 Mexican pesos per US dollar for 2025, predicting a neutral currency effect.
