In Latin America, GPA implemented a similar approach. Since 2013, GPA organizes, an annual solidarity day (“Dia de Solidariedade”) in its stores in Brazil. During this event and thanks to many voluntary employees, GPA collects basic foodstuffs that are then redistributed to vulnerable families and homeless people.
In Argentina, Libertad supports the network of food banks since 2013 (Red Bancos de Alimentos) and Grupo Éxito in Colombia, continues the partnership it started several years ago with local food banks which has permitted collecting approximately 1 400 tons of goods in 2021.
