Overview

  • MCCI reports that between 2022 and 2025 five linked companies—Konkistolo, Abastémade, Grupo Pelmu, Todólogos.com and Comercializadora FamilyDuck—won Diconsa procurements totaling nearly 2 billion pesos under Alimentación para el Bienestar.
  • The ASF identified the five firms in 16 procedures and traced triangulated transfers, including flows between Grupo Pelmu and Todólogos.com and payments to related individuals, indicating simulated competition.
  • MCCI documents that Konkistolo allegedly used the stolen identity of a 49-year-old woman to sign government contracts exceeding 256 million pesos.
  • Official records and on-the-ground checks show ghost fiscal addresses: Konkistolo and FamilyDuck listed a Roma Norte legal office, Todólogos.com gave luxury apartment towers, and Grupo Pelmu cited a warehouse with a print shop.
  • Empower links personnel across the firms, noting Enrique Magaña del Valle’s ties to FamilyDuck and Todólogos.com and his brother Yibrán’s role at Grupo Pelmu, while coverage cites no announced prosecutions or sanctions to date.
