"In the second half of 2022, we will keep deploying innovative strategies in the marketplace to meet the needs of customers and consumers, as well as actions to support our communities, against the backdrop of high inflation and disruptions in the supply chain", he added.
In June, Arca Continental was ratified for the 7th consecutive year in the FTSE4Good Index of the London Stock Exchange. In addition, it was ratified in the Sustainability Index of both Standard & Poor´s Dow Jones and the Mexican Bolsa; both indices aim to give greater exposure to companies with the best practices in the areas of environmental, social and corporate governance.
In Mexico, Arca Continental together with Petstar and Coca-Cola México invested a combined Ps. 175 million to strengthen the infrastructure of collection and recycling, aiming to increase the current average collection and recycling from 6 of every 10 containers placed in the market to 10 of 10 by 2030.
Arca Continental and the Fundación Coca-Cola via the project Escuelas de Lluvia ("Rain Schools"), have installed 23 rain catchment systems in schools across the states of Jalisco, Sinaloa and Nuevo León, reaching a savings of more than 5 million liters of water in one year.
In Ecuador, we signed an agreement with the Ministry of the Environment, Water and Ecological Transition to recycle as part of the circular economy, with the goal of bringing visibility and recognition to the task of those that recycle; noting their participation in the value chain, as well as fostering their formalization and eliminating the discrimination and informality that they currently live under.

On July 18th, 2022, Fitch Ratings ratified the rating of Arca Continental, AC Bebidas and Arca Continental Lindley, at both the global and national levels.

For Arca Continental Lindley, the agency also ratified its global "A" rating, with a stable outlook.
On July 13th, 2022, Moody's adjusted Mexico's sovereign rating and as a result Arca Continental's global scale rating from A2 to A3 with a change in the outlook to stable. AC maintains a rating two levels above the sovereign rating due to its geographic diversification, proportion of dollar-based revenues, among other fundamentals.

Reuters earlier reported that Berlin was leaning towards taking a stake of up to 30% and that a deal would allow Uniper to pass on soaring prices to customers.
