Robles emphasized FIFCO’s commitment to evolving the beer category through its processes, packaging, and communication, aiming to deliver experiences aligned with consumer interests and lifestyles. The company’s focus extends beyond just flavor competition to building genuine and responsible connections with its audience.

A key highlight is the relaunch of the ROCK brand, targeting a young and disruptive demographic. With revamped packaging and new flavors like Naranja Spicy, Toronja Cherry, and Limón & Sal, ROCK aims to connect with consumers seeking intensity and brands that resonate with their identity.

This diversification strategy allows FIFCO to cater to a broader audience, with each product reflecting shared values. The company’s dedication to responsible consumption is further demonstrated through its nationwide “Consumo Inteligente Integral” program.

In 2024, this program reached over 66,000 adults through digital platforms and educational content, promoting responsible drinking habits. FIFCO also maintains a wide selection of low-alcohol beers (4% or less), which constituted 41.95% of its total beer portfolio by the end of last year.

Furthermore, FIFCO’s commitment to sustainability is evident in its “FIFCO Circular” strategy. This initiative focuses on transforming operations towards a regenerative economy. Impressively, FIFCO achieved 61% circularity in its processes in 2024, surpassing its 2027 target. This accomplishment underscores the company’s dedication to environmental responsibility and continuous improvement across its value chain.
