I am pleased to share with you the results for the second quarter of the year, which reflect the commitment and effort of our employees to execute our strategy of having the lowest price, the best assortment, and an exceptional shopping experience.
For the sixteenth consecutive quarter and due to the preference of our customers, we continued to gain market share. Our same-store sales in Mexico outpaced ANTAD’s growth with an average spread in the quarter of 202 basis points.
Our loyalty program “Mi Chedraui” has been a fundamental element in strengthening the value offered to our customers. At the end of June 2024, we had 12.5 million registered customers (with name information), growing 12.8% compared to the same period in 2023. We are pleased to report that 71% of the sales in Mexico were made by customers enrolled in “Mi Chedraui“.
At the end of May, we started with our summer campaign ” Por Ti, Cuesta Menos el verano Chedraui “, an initiative that we carried out for the third consecutive year and through which we offer our customers a wide variety of promotions on their preferred products.
Chedraui USA same-store sales resumed their positive trend, with growth of 1.4% in dollars, driven by the favorable performance of El Super and Fiesta Mart. At Smart & Final, we continue to carry out various initiatives to position ourselves as a primary store for our customers, which is starting to be reflected in a better sales trend.
During the quarter we concluded the process of preparing and publishing our 2023 Integrated Annual Report. It is important to mention, that the content of the report was strengthened, aligning it with the relevant topics for our stakeholders in Environmental, Social and Governance matters of the company. This can be consulted on our investors’ web page.
Finally, I would like to reiterate our commitment to continually improving profitability, shown in the 43- basis point improvement of our Return on Equity (ROE) to 18.5% in this second quarter compared to 2Q’23.
