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 60% of total exports. Copper is Chile’s top export and provides 20% of government revenue.

From 2003 through 2013, real growth averaged almost 5% per year, despite a slight contraction in 2009 that resulted from the global financial crisis. Growth slowed to an estimated 1.4% in 2017. A continued drop in copper prices prompted Chile to experience its third consecutive year of slow growth.

Chile deepened its longstanding commitment to trade liberalization with the signing of a free trade agreement with the US, effective 1 January 2004. Chile has 22 trade agreements covering 60 countries including agreements with the EU, Mercosur, China, India, South Korea, and Mexico. In May 2010, Chile signed the OECD Convention, becoming the first South American country to join the OECD. In October 2015, Chile signed 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 October 2016, those sovereign wealth funds - kept mostly outside the country and separate from Central Bank reserves - amounted to more than $23.5 billion. Chile used these funds to finance fiscal stimulus packages during the 2009 economic downturn.

In 2014, President Michelle BACHELET introduced tax reforms aimed at delivering her campaign promise to fight inequality and to provide access to education and health care. The reforms are expected to generate additional tax revenues equal to 3% of Chile’s GDP, mostly by increasing corporate tax rates to OECD averages.

BACKGROUND.-

The company began at the end of 1956, when Mario and Vittorio Signorio acquired the CAFÉ DO BRASIL, located in the heart of Santiago, which had been inaugurated in 1942. The company soon brought it to the sale of related products, amongst coffee, tea, yerba mate and cocoa, giving official initiation to what is known today as ICB SA

 

Started a process of continuous expansion, of organic nature and via acquisitions, with significant milestones that were strengthening the portfolio of ICB, the first of which was the representation of the VAN CAMP'SA brand from 1966. In the following years, ICB extended its presence in the chilean market, with the incorporation of products like fruits, seafoods and vegetables in conservation. A great and final advance occurred, but in 1995, when the company purchased MARCO POLO (an important manufacturer of snacks, dried fruits and condiments) and the representation of leading international brands, the company gave the step that meant its transformation in a local food producer relevant.

 

This development experienced a new and significant impulse in 1999, by acquiring the recognized producer of pickles, sauces and dressings JUAN BAS ALIMENTOS SA, and its DON JUAN brand (operation that led to create a second business unit), and obtain that same year the representation for Chile of the FERRERO ROCHER brand.

Since 2000, and already becoming a holding, ICB has added to its offer several of the main international brands in its respective items, like COLA CAO in 2004, PRINGLES in 2006, KELLOGG'S and BAUDUCCO in 2012, and PUYEHUE and LAVAZZA in 2015. It should be mentioned that others of the trade brands currently marketed by the company are NUTELLA, KINDER, TIC-TAC, ESMERALDA, COPACABANA, LOS ASTURES, DON VITTORIO, CRISTIAN BUSTOS and EXCELSIOR.

Besides, in 2003 a third business unit was created, ICB FOOD SERVICE, in order to attend the HORECA channel (hotels, restaurants and casinos) through a complete portfolio of more than 800 products.

 

ICB has also been concerned that its growth includes the highest standards in technological matter, distribution, logistics, training of its staff and certifications of quality and safety, positioning at the vanguard between the supplier companies of the retail industry.

 

In this way, ICB S.A. it has been raised as a great corporation within the Chilean Food Sector. Today have more than one thousand partners highly motivated and in constant training, three business units, two productive plants and a large portfolio that exceeds the 1,500 products of prestigious brands both national and global, all of them produced with advanced productive methods and raw materials the highest quality, including between the favorites of local consumers.
