MEXICO CITY, Mexico. KidZania Journal. November 26, 2012. (English). -The Best Mexican Companies, an initiative promoted by Banco Nacional de Mexico (Banamex), Deloitte Mexico and ITESM, announced the selection of the ‘2012 Best Mexican Companies’ for their high performance in business management, outstanding as an example in the country.

Representatives of this year’s selected 40 companies received the recognition in a gala event held on November 22nd in the Santa Fe campus of ITESM in Mexico City, which was directed by journalist Carlos Mota. The event also had the presence of Alfonso Pompa Padilla -President of the Metropolitan Zone of Mexico City, ITESM-, Daniel Arreola Moska -CEO of Campus Santa Fe, ITESM, Thomas Aldford Ehrenberg -Director of Corporate and Business Banking and Government Banking Institutions, Banamex-, Jorge Tejeda Peraza -CEO, Corporate Banking LATAM-, Arturo Garcia Bello -National Director of Middle Market, Deloitte, Ernesto Gonzalez -CEO, Deloitte Mexico-, representatives of the companies behind the initiative, who were given the task of selecting the winners.

In this edition of ‘The Best Mexican Companies’, more than 190 Mexican companies participated as nominees, willing to expose their business practices and, in the process, “discover the value of their business”, adding to the experience of sharing and disseminating national business culture focused on excellence. This recognition is not a ranking, or given to a specific person; it distinguishes companies by their senior business management performance, comparable internationally.

Of the 40 companies recognized this year, 14 are included for the first time on the list, while 26 endorse their comittment -some of them even from the first edition- which speaks of a group of companies committed to continuous improvement and the consolidation of their businesses.
