SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2016
The idea of social responsibility has
thus been implemented, by incorpora-
ting of the triad points which define it:
the economic, social and environmen-
tal dimensions.
This Sustainability Report – in its 10th
edition – reveals the actions of the
Ibersol Group carried out throughout
2016, which are based in the standar-
ds of social responsibility pursued by
our organization. Here we expose and
present the practices that contributed
to the continuous development and to
strengthen the relationships between
the different parties involved, whilst
respecting the environment and the
surrounding community.
In 2016, in the context of the econo-
mical dimension, we should point the
expansion project of the Group, both
indoors and out, with the opening of
a total of 20 new units: 18 in Portugal
and 2 in Angola. This strategy resulted
in the continuity of what has been suc-
cessfully resumed in 2015.
The settlement of the deal, at the end
of October, consisting in the acquisition
of 100% of the Spanish group Eat Out
to Agrolimen - in an operation that to-
talled 100 million euro – is the most
relevant milestone to the expansion
of Ibersol, in its 25 years of existence.
Eat Out is one of the most important
group in the foodservice business in
our neighbouring country, owner of its
own brands – such as Pans & Company,
Ribs, Santa Maria or Frescco –, and has
a strong position in the Travel business,
with units in 6 airports and 3 railway
stations in Spain.
COMMITMENT TO SOCIAL
RESPONSIBILITY
Having in mind the social,
economical and economic
changes that the organizations
currently go through, social
responsibility places new
and constant management
challenges. Year after year,
the Ibersol Group seeks to
face and overcome these
challenges, always striving for
doing more and better.
