Chairperson's
message

Inditex’s true strength, which enables us to tackle any challenge, no matter how difficult is, the thousands of people who make up the Group. It is their talent, creativity, enthusiasm, and hard work that make Inditex better and better. Performance in 2022, the year in which I had the honour of becoming the Group’s nonexecutive chairperson, was a good example of that strength. Thanks to the magic that exists at this company, the magic our talented and devoted teams put into everything they do, we performed very well despite an uncertain and complex backdrop.

A refusal to settle, a passion for things well done and tirelessly striving to do things better are the characteristics that define us. This magic permeates our stores, our brands’ sales and design teams, our logistics facilities, our production centres and our corporate departments. It explains our achievements and guarantees that what comes next will likewise astonish.

Our model pivots around design and product, the quality of our customer relations and our responsibility to our surroundings. By always working as a team, combining humility with ambition, we are forging a company that never loses its essence despite evolving constantly. We don’t want to be fast; we want to be agile and flexible. We don’t want to be big, we want to be relevant. We want to be agents of change and aspire to lead our industry’s transformation. We want to have a positive impact in everything we do.

The confidence placed in our brands and products by our store and online customers all over the world drives us. The achievements and milestones obtained through the Group in a year as challenging as 2022 encourage us to go on working with the same enthusiasm, ambition and determination as always. Fashion is our passion and our contribution is to constantly provide more creativity and quality along with the greatest responsibility.
