The soft drinks industry is comprised by bottlers of carbonates, water, juice,
among other categories. Carbonates is the leading category in this industry
with a 58% market share, nevertheless, it is facing strong pressure due to
more health conscious consumers and tax increases on the category.

Packaged food sales value recovered in 2015 after a deceleration in 2014
caused by an increase in price, which included the IEPS tax on high-calorie
food. Packaged food is expected to recover over the next 5 years due to
sociodemographic and economic changes such as a growing middle class,
double-income households and urbanization and consumer spending.
Packaged Food Industry Performance in Mexico
Source: Euromonitor
Mexico’s authorities recently revealed that GDP grew 2.5% in 2015. In a year full of economic and financial turmoil mainly influenced by China’s decreased
growth and considerable drop in oil and commodity prices, the fact that Mexico managed to grow at this pace indicates the country holds solid
macroeconomic fundamentals especially when compared to similar emerging markets economies such as other Latin American peers. Also, with Brazil in
deep economic trouble, Mexico should see its position among emerging countries rise in Latin America which should reflect in an increase in foreign and
local investments due a to a solid economy, political stability and positive middle to long term growth prospects.
The consumer market in Mexico has responded well to the actual economic challenging environment by remaining budget cautions. There is a positive
outlook for the Mexican consumer, despite a modest deceleration in consumer spending in early 2016 as rising inflation affects consumer spending. Strong
labor market dynamics, favorable demographics and low price pressures support this strong outlook. In particular, consumer spending growth will boot the
emergence of an upper-middle class, creating robust premiumization opportunities.
Mexican Economy Overview
The packaged food industry is comprised by producers of baked goods,
dairy products, processed meats, confectionary products, among other
categories. In 2015, baked goods and dairy products represented slightly
more than half of the market share in this industry.

The beverage industry is led by Coca Cola with almost one third of the
market share. Coca Cola is bottled in Mexico by two major bottling
companies (Arca Continental and Coca Cola FEMSA) and other regional
bottling companies.
Soft drinks companies in 2015 fought to maintain their sales by changing
formulas, launching additional “light” products with sugar substitutes,
modifying packaging and fortifying their beverages to attract more health-
conscious consumers. As a result, the categories most heavily affected by
the IEPS tax on high calorie drinks, such as carbonates and juice, were able
to recover in 2015.Historical & Forecast Sales

Transaction Analysis
The following business cases present Seale & Associates’ recent and relevant transactions experience in the food & beverage industry in Mexico.
Cafe del Pacifico, S.A.P.I. de C.V.
Situation: Seale & Associates was retained by the family owners of Caffenio, a leading Mexican roaster
and producer of coffee and coffee related products to advise on the structuring of a transaction with
OXXO, their top client by sales and volume. Both the company and the client had strong concerns about
the highly dependent nature of their relationship.
Seale & Associates’ Approach: Seale professionals ran a comprehensive analysis of the situation and
determined an crafted an ideal transaction structure that addressed the concerns of both parties.
Outcome: The process resulted in the sale of a minority participation and an execution of long term
supply agreement with OXXO. After the transaction, Caffenio has grown significantly driven by a stronger
relationship with OXXO.
“We asked Seale to help us design and execute a joint
venture with a major customer. They designed a
custom transaction structure that perfectly addressed
our needs and the needs of our major customer. They
earned our trust and the trust of our partner – and both
parties could not be happier about the outcome.” -

Situation: Seale & Associates was retained by the family owners of Grupo Fomento Queretano, one of
the oldest family-owned Coca-Cola bottlers in Mexico, to analyze strategic alternatives for their business
in the context of a changing industry landscape.
Seale & Associates’ Approach: Seale professionals presented the family with a range of strategic
alternatives and outcome scenarios for a sale or merger with three industry consolidators, and analyzed
in the context of shareholder value, timing, and control objectives. After the family decided that a merger
with Coca-Cola FEMSA was the preferred alternative, Seale ran a disciplined and expedited preferred
buyer process to achieve shareholder’s value, timing and control objectives.
Outcome: Seale’s approach resulted in shareholder consensus on the preferred alternative and a

before our merger with Coca-Cola FEMSA, Seale
listened and provided straightforward answers to each
and every one of our family member’s questions and
concerns and outlined the full range of options. Their
professionals provided invaluable guidance and
support as they helped us to navigate the merger
negotiations. We knew we could count on their trusted
advice to make certain we made the best decisions for
our company, our employees, and our family.” -

nonsense approach to make sure it happened quickly

the fastest deal we ever completed – it remains one of
the best.” - Francisco Garza Egloff, Chief Executive
