Message
The year 2020 was a transformational one for SIMPAR and its subsidiaries. During the year, we completed our corporate restructuring and produced growth with higher profitability, even amid the context of the Covid-19 pandemic which tested and provided proof of the resilience and fundamentals of all our companies.
We emphasize that even amidst the challenges imposed by Covid-19, we put intensive work into making strategic movements in order to generate sustainable value for customers, shareholders, creditors, suppliers, employees and other stakeholders, while not losing focus of the quality of the services provided to our customers and the well-being of our employees and society.

Capital management
The SIMPAR business model aims to measure and demonstrate how its managerial capacity and the businesses of its subsidiary companies affect stakeholders. It also demonstrates the ability of the holding company to create positive value over time. To that end, it shows the capital resources used as inputs (when the creation of value begins), the company's values and intangible assets (at the center of the model), and the positive impacts that the businesses and activities have (the value created based on the capital resources used).

Supplier management
Following significant progress in managing the production chain in 2019, within the scope of the Supplier Management Project, in 2020 SIMPAR improved its supplier selection process by introducing vetting in which social aspects are evaluated. A further advance during the year was the corporate restructuring, with strong companies under the umbrella of the same holding company, guaranteeing a robust cash structure, security in its relations with suppliers and greater bargaining power.
The company conducts its business in a way that boosts the development of the states where its subsidiaries operate, for which reason partnerships with local companies receive priority. So much so that, in 2020, of total purchases and expenditures on services, 72% were with local suppliers (in the states where the Group’s branches are located). Besides this commitment, and with a view to maintaining the excellence of its production chain, SIMPAR requires its partners to adhere to socioenvironmental requisites, respect for human rights and high standards of labor and healthcare.
