Our stories
Women's panel and their path to being CEO
Environmental
As a Socially Responsible Company, we decided to take action and innovate our business core by evaluating the sustainability and impact of all the projects we finance. To achieve this, we have implemented the Environmental and Social policy "SARAS" to promote a healthy business administration that controls and monitors our projects' impact on communities and the environment. The policy establishes a set of guidelines, instruments, and considerations for our accreditation process that reduces environmental and social risks when granting financing. Our policy is meticulously enforced during our accreditation process.
Community
Our work with the community is based on our relationship with our staff, customers, and society in general.
Staff
Our internal community participates in defining how we contribute to society.
Customers
We promote the adoption of sustainability by financing customers who incorporate processes and policies that help alleviate social problems and support the environment.
Society
We work hand in hand with organizations that pursue objectives similar to our own.
In 2020 we implemented a community-oriented work plan with two main action areas.
Access to education
We joined UNICEF’s education efforts, signing a three-year collaboration agreement, supporting education programs promoted by the organization.
Supporting Entrepreneurs
We reaffirm our commitment to the intellectual development of new generations by partnering with EPIC Lab, a center for creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship from the Instituto Tecnológico Autónomo de México ("ITAM"), seeking to inspire young people in their entrepreneurial journey.
Code of ethics and Anti-corruption policy
These documents are mandatories and crucial to the organization’s operations; they are the guides that establish the behavior expected from the workforce and stakeholders.
Reports and materials
Every year we raise the bar as a company to improve our sustainability practices across the region and obtain new certifications that might help Tangelo to adopt the best in class practices, and at the same time looking for new ways to have a positive impact on the region and with our stakeholders.
