Spanish business turnover and economic outlook

Overview

Economic data from Spain highlights performance and outlooks across different business scales. In 2024, foreign multinational subsidiaries in Spain experienced a 7.1% increase in turnover, totaling 851,179 million euros. Although these 17,898 subsidiaries constitute only 0.5% of the country’s total companies, they represent approximately 29% of turnover in analyzed sectors and employ over 2.5 million people. The Eurozone is the primary source of business for these entities, with France and Germany leading in turnover.

Concurrently, Spanish small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are demonstrating resilience. Forecasts indicate that 40.9% of SMEs expect turnover increases this year, and 36.5% project improved economic results for 2026, a historical high. While many SMEs plan to maintain stable staffing levels, larger companies with turnovers exceeding 2 million euros show more dynamism, with roughly half projecting increases in both sales and profits.
