To Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Securities Intermediaries:

We have been engaged by Edificio del Noroeste, S.A. de C.V., a private corporation (sociedad anónima de capital variable) organized under the laws of the United Mexican States (“Purchaser”) and owned and controlled by the members of the Robinson Bours Family, to act as Information Agent (the “Information Agent”) in connection with the offer to purchase (the “Offer”) any and all issued and outstanding (i) Series B shares, without par value (the “Series B Shares”) of Industrias Bachoco, S.A.B. de C.V., a publicly-held corporation (sociedad anónima bursátil de capital variable) organized under the laws of United Mexican States (the Company”) held by U.S. holders (within the meaning of Rule 14d-1(d) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which defines a U.S. holder as “any security holder resident in the United States”) and (ii) American Depositary Shares (each of which represents twelve Series B Shares) of the Company (the “ADSs,” and together with the Series B Shares, the “Shares”), from all holders, wherever located, in each case other than any Shares owned directly or indirectly by the Robinson Bours Family and/or its affiliates, Ps.81.66 in cash per Series B Share and Ps.979.92 (the “U.S. Offer Price”), without interest, upon the terms, and subject to the conditions, set forth in the U.S. Offer to Purchase, dated October 6, 2022 (the “U.S. Offer to Purchase”). In addition, Purchaser is making a concurrent all cash tender offer directed to holders of Series B Shares, but not holders of ADSs (the “Mexican Offer”). Non-U.S. holders will not be permitted to tender their Series B Shares in the U.S. Offer. ADSs (whether or not held by U.S. holders) may only be tendered in the U.S. Offer. The price offered for Series B Shares in the Mexican Offer is the same on a per Series B Share basis as the U.S. Offer Price, payable in Mexican pesos under the terms described in the offering documents relating to the Mexican Offer.

3.

Purchaser will not pay any brokerage fees or commissions to any broker or dealer or to any other person (other than to the Dealer Manager) in connection with the solicitation of tenders of Series B Shares pursuant to the Offer.
