Todo comenzó el año 2009 en Chile con el propósito de crear una empresa que estuviera basada desde los estatutos en el concepto del triple resultado (social, ambiental y financiero). De ese compromiso legal surgen nuestro nombre TriCiclos y todas las prácticas que hemos desarrollado desde entonces. Gracias a ello es que fuimos la primera Empresa B en certificarse fuera de América del Norte, lo cual nos llena de orgullo. Trabajamos para potenciar la Economía Circular a nivel global, garantizando que los materiales que pasan por nuestras operaciones de reciclaje puedan ser reinsertados como materias primas en sistemas productivos. Generamos los espacios y procedimientos para hacernos cargo de los residuos reciclables, con el objetivo de mostrar nuevos ciclos que agreguen valor a los materiales.

Leal is the only information platform in LATAM that, by leveraging effective loyalty programs, allows brick and mortar merchants to truly understand who their customers are, what they buy, and what they are saying about their brands. While most rewards programs today are growing weaker and weaker, Leal has the highest retention rate in the industry because of its frictionless customer and retailer experience. Consumers can enjoy having all of their favorite brands​ loyalty programs in a single app or card, that they will use to earn points they can later redeem for rewards. They can use those points as real currency and save money. For affiliated merchants, Leal is disrupting the way they interact with their customers by providing the necessary technology to compete in a digital world. Leal provides the data needed to interact with customers and significantly increase sales and engagement. Weve built a robust platform with a proprietary technology for Point-of-sale integrations, payment processor integrations, and actionable analytics.

Contamos con un portafolio de soluciones y servicios que impactan la cadena completa de la energía, como la construcción de proyectos de energía solar, de infraestructura de carga para movilidad eléctrica y de almacenamiento de energía. Además, generamos energía a través de plantas propias, que a su vez operamos y mantenemos, para finalmente, comercializar energía a usuarios finales por medio del primer comercializador de energía digital de Latinoamérica. Así, hemos logrado crear una empresa de energía digital que a través de un servicio increíble nos permite cambiar la forma en que las personas y empresas producen y consumen energía.
