CHILE - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Chile has a market-oriented economy characterized by a high level of foreign trade and a reputation for strong financial institutions and sound policy that have given it the strongest sovereign bond rating in South America. Exports of goods and services account for approximately one-third of GDP, with commodities making up some three-quarters of total exports. Copper alone provides 19% of government revenue. From 2003 through 2013, real growth averaged almost 5% per year, despite the slight contraction in 2009 that resulted from the global financial crisis. Chile deepened its longstanding commitment to trade liberalization with the signing of a free trade agreement with the US, which took effect on 1 January 2004. Chile has 22 trade agreements covering 60 countries including agreements with the European Union, Mercosur, China, India, South Korea, and Mexico. Chile has joined the United States and nine other countries in negotiating the Trans-Pacific-Partnership trade agreement. The Chilean Government has generally followed a countercyclical fiscal policy, accumulating surpluses in sovereign wealth funds during periods of high copper prices and economic growth, and generally allowing deficit spending only during periods of low copper prices and growth. As of 31 December 2012, those sovereign wealth funds - kept mostly outside the country and separate from Central Bank reserves - amounted to more than $20.9 billion. Chile used these funds to finance fiscal stimulus packages during the 2009 economic downturn. In May 2010 Chile signed the OECD Convention, becoming the first South American country to join the OECD

CENCOSUD S.A.

 

 

BUSINESS BACKGROUND

Chilean company, headquartered in A. Kennedy 9001, Piso 7, Las Condes, Santiago.
 
Cencosud SA (IPSA: CENCOSUD [2]) is a business consortium of Chilean capital that operates in several countries in South America, mainly in the retail sector.
 
Originally called Centros Comerciales Sudamericanos S.A., several companies currently depend on it, among them in the supermarkets segment , the "Jumbo" hypermarkets ( in Chile and Argentina), the Argentinian chains "Disco" and "Super Vea",  the Chilean "Santa Isabel", the Peruvian "Wong" and the Brazilian  "GBarbosa". In Chile  the department store chain "Paris", "Banco Paris" and its credit card "Mas". Cencosud also operates the home improvement store "Easy", present in Chile, Argentina and Colombia, along with a number of malls in the Southern Cone, as "Alto Las Condes", "Portal La Dehesa", "Florida Center" and "Unicenter Shopping". To this is added a prominent role in the real estate sector, reflected mainly through the construction of Costanera Center, a complex of buildings which will include the tallest skyscraper in South America.
 
The company was created through supermarket "Las Brisas" founded by  German immigrant  "Horst Paulmann" in the city of Temuco, in the south of Chile. Jumbo, the first hypermarket in the country,  opened in 1978, in the eastern sector of Santiago de Chile and three years later it opened in Buenos Aires too.  Years later, it expanded its business of supermarkets and shopping centers until 2005 when they acquired Paris in Chile. Thereafter, Cencosud expanded to Peru, Colombia and Brazil, and became one of the largest retail chains in Latin America.
 

 

 

CENCOSUD SHOPPING CENTERS S.A.

 

 

BUSINESS BACKGROUND

The company was founded under the name Inmobiliaria Las Verbenas S.A. as a publicly-held corporation on November  5, 1980, in accordance with Notarial Act before Enrique Morgan Torres, Notary Public of Santiago.
On June 6, 2005, according to Special Shareholders Meeting, it was resolved to change name and form Cencosud Shopping Centers S.A.
 
Business Purpose: Sale, lease, subdivision, construction and in general implementation and administration of all kind of realty investment in the country or abroad in tangible and intangible personal property, investment in companies and commercialization, production, import or export permanently of all types of goods.

 

BUSINESS HISTORY

 

 

The Company was formed in the City of Santiago on 13/12/1968  as a Limited Liability Company  under the name ALMACENES PARIS LTDA.
 
In accordance with Notarial Act dated 16/07/1996, before the Notary Martín Vásquez Cordero, the legal status was changed to Joint Stock Company, hence, it changed its name to ALMACENES PARIS COMERCIAL S.A.
 
According to Notarial Act dated 04/10/2005, before the Notary Emilio Pomar Carrasco in Santiago, published in the Official Gazette on 11/10/2005, the name of the Company was changed again from  ALMACENES PARIS COMERCIAL S.A. to PARIS S.A.,  being authorized to use the short name PARIS for publishing and propagandas. 
 
On 04/11/2005, the Company cancelled its registration in the Securities Register, and became  a Closely-Held Corporation.
 
In compliance with Notarial Act dated 13/12/2006 before Emilio Pomar Carrasco,  Notary Public in Santiago, published in the Official Gazette on 09/01/2007 Page 15, there was an increase in paid capital at that date, from Ps$.11,360,175,608.= divided into 250,000,000 non par value shares to the sum of Ps$31,438,931,335 .= Pesos, divided into 350,000,000 non par value shares.
 
According to Notarial Act dated 02/01/2008 before Gustavo Montero Martí, Notary Public in Santiago, published in the Official Gazette on 23/01/2008 Page 16, share capital increased to the sum of Ps$.431,739,974,880.= Pesos divided into 600,000,000 non par value shares.
 
Moreover, in 2008, the first stage of the Maipu Portal started with the inauguration of Easy.
 
In compliance with Notarial Act dated 30/06/2009 before Notary Gustavo Montero Marti, Substitute Notary, José Musalem Saffie in Santiago, published in the Official Gazette on 11/07/2009 Page 30,  Bylaws were amended under which it was agreed to divide the company into three, one as the legal successor which will keep the name PARIS S.A. (the Subject Company) and two new companies that will be called "Paris Santiago Centro S.A. and "Paris Inmobiliaria SCT S.A.".  As a result,  it was agreed to reduce the capital to the amount of Ps$ 55,945,550,521.= Pesos divided into 600,000,000 registered shares of the same series and without par value.
 
In accordance with Notarial Act dated 31/08/2009, before Gustavo Montero Marti, Notary Public in Santiago, published in the Official Gazette on 04/09/2009 Page 80, Bylaws were amended concerning impending merger of  "Cencosud Supermercados S.A." with "Paris S.A." (which shall be called Cencosud Retail S.A., effective as from September 1, 2009), by amalgamating the first mentioned into the latter, which will survive and continues the activities and operations, in terms specified in the relevant Notarial Act, hence it adopted the new name: "Cencosud Retail SA" t/a Paris S.A. or Cer S.A. The merger increases the capital to the sum of Ps$ 338,195,028,981 Pesos divided into 4,771,059,158 registered shares with no par value. It also expands its business purpose.
 
Pursuant to Notarial Act dated  01/10/2010 , before José Musalem Saffie,  Notary Public in Santiago, published in the Official Gazette on 16/10/2010 Page 4, there was change in the business purpose, expanding as follows: The company operates commercial establishments, supermarkets, distributors, department stores on a wholesale and retail basis; perform directly or through others the purchase, sale, import, export, distribution of all goods, merchandise or services; create, form or participate in civil or commercial partnerships, management and operation of pharmacies and pharmaceutical warehouses.
 
In 2010, Paris Chile announced the opening of four stores, one of then in Copiapo being the largest of the 4 due to the high population growth. Moreover, in the the same city, they completed the second stage of Copiapo Portal. With the earthquake and subsequent tsunami at the beginning of the year, several tents of the brands Santa Isabel and Easy were opened in the affected areas. In the mid-year, they acquired "Mall Concepcion", currently under construction. In the same city, but at the end of the same year, they began to build the first Jumbo and Easy in Gran Concepcion. It is worth mentioning  that Easy had already been provisionally installed in Concepcion  after the earthquake in two points: at Chacabuco Avenue, in the heart of Concepcion (in the vecinity of the old germal school in Concepción, land the company owns since 2009) and to date it still serves the public;and at Alessandri Highway, on the corner of  Costanera Avenue, in a vast land (formerly owned by the partnership formed by Casinos Enjoy and the University of Concepción and its subsidiary Loteria) located on the border of the communes Hualpén and Concepción (where Jumbo / Easy will be set up).
 
In 2011, Cencosud changed  its corporate image as well as all its trademarks to a style similar to the Paris store.
 
In January 2011, the Chilean justice declared as abusive a clause of the regulations of the Jumbo Mas card which caused customers to be charged a surcharge on the cost for card maintenance, and Cencosud was ordered to pay a fine of US$26 000 million dollars and return the money to affected customers that the Consumers Association (Conadecus) calculated 400,000.  
 
Press releases reported that after the earthquake of February last year, Cencosud  entered merchandise to the country under the banner of humanitarian aid, to exempt themselves from paying taxes, then to sell it to the State of Chile. Democrats Deputies, Aldo Cornejo, Gabriel Ascencio, Gabriel Silber and Pablo Lorenzini met with the Director of the National Customs Service, Gonzalo Sepulveda, asking him to file a suit against the company.  Eventually the charges were dropped, since Cencosud paid customs duties and VAT on the merchandise that was entered the country. The problem occurred because, Cencosud's imported merchandise declared as humanitarian aid to expedite delivery and not to clog the trucks at the border. All the cargo had been bought by the government of Chile, which payment was withheld until clarification of the customs situation.
 
By 2012, it is expected that this joint venture involve US$ 200 million dollars of investment in Easy in Colombia.
 
 
Cencosud has opened its first stores in Paris Peru where its plan is to open 12 stores in 2013 and 2014 with the 2012 investment plan, opening its first store in the first quarter 2013.
 
In Peru, Paris began operations with its first store in the city of Arequipa in the mall Arequipa Center owned by Cencosud. There Paris has a built area of more than 6,000 m2; then they opened the store in Plaza Norte, being the first store in the city of Lima, followed by the 3rd store in the mall El Quinde Shopping Plaza in the city of Cajamarca, and last November, Paris opened 3 new stores in the mall El Quinde Shopping Plaza of the city of Ica , a second store in the city of Arequipa, in the mall Parque Lambramani Park owned by Parque Arauco, and closed the year with the 6th store in the city of Lima in the mall Plaza Norte.
 
Other projects of Paris for 2014,  in the city of Lima, include the mall Plaza San Miguel, in the mall Aventura Plaza, Bellavista Callao, and mall Aventura Plaza in the city of Trujillo, as well as Stand-Alone stores in different districts of Lima (to be confirmed).
