In order to promote development opportunities to increase the quality of life and improve social conditions in the territories where we are present, in 2023, we will invest more than 1.600 billion pesos in the implementation of housing, economic strengthening and citizenship projects for the development in the northern part of the country.

The materialization of these initiatives was possible thanks to the strategic support of different entities such as the Mayor's Office of Turbana, Colectivo Traso, Pastoral Social, ACD Consultores, Fundasaber, Funcicar and the Grupo Argos Foundation, among other allies with a presence in the territory.

Among the projects developed, we highlight:

  1.   Environmental Education Program focused on designing and implementing actions that promote environmental sustainability in the region. It was aimed at 120 participants and had an investment of close to 60.000 million pesos, 40 of which were contributed by Argos.
  2.   Road Improvement Project in the municipality of Turbana, for which more than 60.000 million pesos were required.
  3.   Access to safe water for more than 650 homes of the region thanks to the Aquavida Program of the Grupo Argos Foundation.
  4.  Improvement of 846 homes through the Healthy Homes Program, 213 in Toluviejo, 553 in Atlántico and 80 in Bolívar; which seeks to replace earth floors with concrete floors.

“At Argos we aspire to generate the greatest value for our shareholders, clients, communities and society in general, through responsible and sustainable actions that contribute to improving the health, economic and well-being conditions of people. "In our work with communities this purpose is reflected, which is materialized in a decent quality of life, development and transformation of the territories where we are present," said William Nassar, manager of Argos Zona Norte.

The above occurs in line with the company's intention to be part of the solution to the problems that afflict us as a society, based on the capacity of the business sector as a source of sustainable development, employment, well-being, innovation and investment and its key role in boosting the economy, protecting the planet and contributing to human progress.
