Who's GDL Green?
GDL Green is a group of Tapatios concerned about the ecological impact that the current way of life is having on our city, which is why we are making available to the population of the city of Guadalajara, initially, products that help maintain the living standard which they are accustomed and also reduces the impact to the environment.
