Telefónica sale of Madrid headquarters

Overview

Telefónica has completed the sale of its historic Madrid headquarters on Gran Vía to businessman Tomás Olivo. The transaction was finalized for approximately €200 million, a figure notably lower than the company’s initial target of €300 million.

The divestment is part of a broader strategy by Telefónica President Marc Murtra to reduce debt and increase liquidity by selling non-strategic assets. Olivo, who manages real estate through General de Galerías Comerciales, acquired the landmark building—the city’s first modern skyscraper—following a competitive bidding process. Due to high-level heritage protection by the Madrid City Council, the architectural and decorative elements of the 1929 structure must be preserved.
