GENERAL INFORMATION

 

Report was requested with the address of: Bodega F No. 348, Central de Abastos, C.P. 09,040, México D.F., México.

 

Approached The Central de Abastos in Mexico City, one of the largest wholesale markets in the world made up of a series of stalls selling fruit, groceries, etc. but we never found said address because it was wrong.

 

Since we could not locate the address you provided us with we went to the agency of Grupo Santander Serfin, bank which has a branch close to the Central De Abastos in Mexico city, but we could not obtain any particular from said bank as its employees claimed famous bank secrecy policy prevents them from providing any information regarding the clients to third parties.

 

We then went to the Regulations and Legal Affairs Department of Central de Abastos in the city of Mexico, and personnel there advised subject was not included in the official list of registered enterprises or businesses working in the Central de Abastos.

 

However, we found a company whose name resembled: Comercial Garcia S.A. de C.V., located at Bodega F 34 B, Central de Abastos de la Ciudad de Mexico, Delegación Iztapalapa, C.P. 09,040, Mexico D.F., Tel: (55) 56940283; we went to their location and found the store was closed but a boy working there named Ignacio Pérez confirmed to us that at said address the firm Comercial García S.A. de C.V. indeed operates and also your subject Abastos Garcia S.A. de C.V.

 

Mr. Pérez said that as employee he had been forbidden to disclose information to third parties but promised he would advise the owner Mr. Antonio García Fernández about this enquiry as soon as he got there. We only learnt that both enterprises are engaged in sale of dry chilies and seeds.

 

We also found out that subject has been authorized by Mexico Customs Administration to conduct import activities from May 31st., 2006, Page No. 274618 of the General Importers Census.

 

More data regarding this company could not be obtained; we await call from Mr. Antonio García Fernández to see if he can provide information but suggest that your client gives authorization to release its name since merchants as Mr. Garcia are usually disinclined to provide information to third parties due to increased crime activity and as they fear to be robbed or kidnapped.

 

This is all we can report for the time being.
