The Company markets its products through wholesale customers, retail and supermarket chains. As of December 31, 2019 , the accounts receivable from the three most important supermarket chains in Chile and Argentina represent 29.1% (27.9% in 2018 ) of the total accounts receivable. As indicated in the Risk management note (See Note 5 – Risk administration ), for Credit Risk purposes, the Company acquires credit insurance policies to cover approximately 90% and 99% of the significant accounts receivable balances domestic and export, respectively, of the total of the account receivables. The general criteria for the determination of the provision for impairment has been established in the framework of IFRS 9, which requires analyzing the behavior of the client portfolio in the long term in order to generate an expected credit loss index by tranches based on the age of the portfolio. This analysis delivered the following results for the Company:
| As of December 31, 2019 | As of December 31, 2018
| Credit loss rate | Total carrying amount | Impairment provision | Credit loss rate | Total carrying amount | Impairment provision
| ThCh$ | ThCh$ | ThCh$ | ThCh$ | ThCh$ | ThCh$
Up to date | 0.13% | 283,828,534 | (745,303) | 0.10% | 296,424,428 | (148,214)
0 a 3 months | 4.76% | 15,927,492 | (664,608) | 4.30% | 22,044,935 | (542,195)
3 a 6 months | 36.48% | 1,072,471 | (344,670) | 32.60% | 2,613,051 | (600,433)

The percentage of impairment determined for the portfolio in each court may differ from the direct application of the previously presented parameters because these percentages are applied to the uncovered portfolio of credit insurance that the Company takes. Past due balances over 6 months and for which no estimates have been made for impairment losses, correspond mainly to items protected by credit insurance. Additionally, there are expired amounts in this stretch, which according to the policy, partial losses due to impairment are estimated based on an individual case-by-case analysis. For the above mentioned, management estimates that it does not require establishing allowances for further impairment, in addition to those already constituted based on an aging analysis of these balances. The write-offs of our doubtful clients are once all pre-trial and judicial, efforts have been made and exhausted all means of payment, with the proper demonstration of the insolvency of customers. This process of write off normally takes more than 1 year. The movement of the impairment losses provision for accounts receivable is as follows:
| As of December 31, 2019 | As of December 31, 2018
