Grupo Sanborns
A subsidiary of Grupo Carso that participates in the commercial sector and is integrated by points of sale, Grupo Sanborns is in charge of the commercial sector.
In particular, Sanborns, established in 1903 as a pharmacy, developed the unique concept of a store-restaurant offering a wide variety of products. Sanborns has introduced new products and services in its stores, including its credit card, opticians, computer equipment, software, banking modules and accessories, as well as the receipt of payment for various services.
Sanborns has three food processing plants (commissaries) where the primary processes of handling meat, freezing hamburgers, making sauces and bread are carried out, which are distributed daily to the restaurants by the company’s own transportation. There is also a chocolate factory that distributes its production to stores and restaurants.
