El Puerto de Liverpool, Mexico's largest department store chain, is focusing its attention on opening smaller stores for its flagship brand, Liverpool.

The format, called Liverpool Express, requires less investment and personnel, while allowing for greater proximity to customers.

To date, the company has around 80 Liverpool Express stores, each measuring approximately 300 square meters, while by the second quarter of 2025 it had 125 units in the larger, traditional format.

Their strategy is not new in the retail world, as it is a path often taken by businesses such as supermarkets, in part due to the difficulty of finding space to open larger units.

Maypo, a distributor of specialty medicines in Mexico, has appointed Demian Cota as its new general manager.

Cota has worked at international companies such as Walmart and FEMSA, where he led large-scale operations and last-mile strategies.

In his new role, Cota will leverage his deep knowledge of operations and supply chain to respond efficiently and quickly to the needs of the healthcare sector in Mexico.

Nestlé, the Swiss food and beverage giant, said it plans to cut 16,000 jobs and is also considering exiting some of its more than 2,000 brands as part of a restructuring.

The cuts represent 6% of its global workforce, with 12,000 of the eliminated positions in administrative roles and another 4,000 in manufacturing and supply chain positions.

Nestlé shares rose 9.30% on the Swiss Stock Exchange, marking their best trading day since 2008.

FEMSA, led by José Antonio Fernández Garza-Lagüera, has made it clear that its commitment to education and childhood development goes beyond philanthropy, but rather must be a long-term strategy.

The Monterrey-based company has consolidated alliances with academic institutions such as Tec de Monterrey to promote public policies and projects based on scientific evidence.
