OREANDA-NEWS. Fitch Ratings has published the first edition of its Mexican Food Sector Dashboard.

The publication explores key themes affecting issuer credit profiles for the Mexican Food sector. In particular, Fitch expects improvement in the operating performance of Mexican food sector companies in 2015 as the combination of higher GDP growth and lower inflation and unemployment rates in Mexico should support a recovery in consumer demand.

Key items that are covered in the reports include operating performance, raw materials environment, mergers and acquisitions, and the rating impact of these factors in the credit profile of companies.
