Genomma Lab Secures Positive Credit Rating from Fitch

Genomma Lab, a distributor of personal care products, received confirmation of its long-term local credit rating from Fitch Ratings. The agency affirmed Genomma Lab’s rating at ‘AA+(mex)’, the second-highest level in Fitch’s local investment grade scale, with a stable outlook.

Fitch expects taxes on sugary drinks and high-calorie beverages, which took effect at the beginning of 2026, to put pressure on Genomma Lab’s volumes in early 2026. However, they anticipate a recovery in consumption towards the end of the year.

Volaris Increases Passenger Traffic in 2025

Volaris, a Mexican low-cost airline, transported 30,995,000 passengers in 2025, marking a 5.2% increase compared to the previous year.

This growth represents Volaris’ second-slowest annual increase in passenger traffic since the post-COVID-19 pandemic recovery, due to ongoing challenges from Pratt & Whitney engine reviews globally.

Despite these challenges, Volaris reported a strong performance in December 2025, serving 2.961 million travelers—a 7.2% increase from the same period in the previous year and its highest growth in eight months.

  • 5.5% increase in domestic passenger traffic
  • 11.7% increase in international passenger traffic
