What this shows Grupo Bimbo S.a.b. DE C.v. stamps GRANTS-MICRO, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-PAR, CLAIMS-PAR, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-DROP, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #18,682 of 50,000; Innovation Score 48.3/100 sits in the top 17% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Golden Homes Holdings Limited (±0 grants).
Grupo Bimbo S.a.b. DE C.v. has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Grupo Bimbo S.a.b. DE C.v. at #18,682 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60L (PROPULSION OF ELECTRICALLY-PROPELLED VEHICLES ; SUPPLYING ELECTRIC POWER FOR AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT OF ELECTRICALLY-PROPELLED VEHICLES ; ELECTRODYNAMIC BRAKE SYSTEMS FOR VEHICLES IN GENERAL ; MAGNETIC SU). As a Foreign Corporation, Grupo Bimbo S.a.b. DE C.v. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Grupo sits between Golden Homes Holdings Limited (15 patents, rank #18,658) and Guangzhou Fangbang Electronics Co., Ltd. (15 patents, rank #18,666) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 48.3/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 4 grants, compared with 10 in the 2015–2019 window, a -60% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Grupo Bimbo S.a.b. DE C.v.'s 10.8 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 12 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
