Information Provided

:

Josue Huerta Mendoza (Accountant) with whom we spoke has confirmed and/or updated general information of the company. However, he flatly refused to give us most recent financial statements of this company on grounds of confidentiality.  He only stated that in year 2009 sales turnover of this company reduced in a 10% over the previous year 2008, mainly attributable to the financial crisis in the United States. However there has been a slight recovery  of 5% in 2010. Trend that would be maintained this present year.
