Introduction about the company
Industria de Diseño Textil S.A., better known as Inditex, is one of the world's largest fashion retailers and is headquartered in Arteixo, Spain. Best known for the Zara brand, the company also owns popular names such as Pull&Bear, Massimo Dutti, Bershka, Stradivarius, Oysho, Zara Home, and Uterqüe. Inditex is known for its fast production and distribution model that allows it to respond to fashion trends at lightning speed and make them available worldwide.
Key figures & performance
In fiscal year 2024, Inditex achieved sales of €38.63 billion, up 7.19% from the previous year. Net profit was €7.58 billion, representing an increase of 9.83% compared to 2023. The company's market capitalization currently stands at €147.97 billion
History & development
Inditex was founded in 1975 by Amancio Ortega with the opening of the first Zara store in La Coruña, Spain. The company grew rapidly and introduced an innovative model in which design, production, and distribution are tightly linked. This made the lead time from design to sale much shorter than traditional retailers. In the following years, Inditex expanded its brand portfolio and became active in more than 200 markets worldwide, both in stores and online.
Sector & competition
Inditex operates in the global fashion retail sector, competing with companies such as H&M, Uniqlo, and Gap. It stands out for its quick responsiveness to fashion trends, efficient supply chain and strong presence both online and offline. A focus on sustainability and technological innovation plays an increasing role in the company's strategy.
Inditex's influence on the EURO STOXX 50
Inditex has a weighting of 1.63% within the EUROSTOXX 50 index, representing a modest influence within the whole. Nevertheless, the company plays a visible role within the retail component of the index, thanks in part to its global presence and stable market position.

Investment analysis & outlook
The chart below shows Inditex's price performance compared to the EUROSTOXX 50 over the past five years. Where the index rose by +65.34%, Inditex posted an impressive return of +88.75%. That strong performance reflects the recovery of the retail sector after the pandemic and the success of Inditex's omnichannel model.
Sales growth lagged in the first quarter of 2025, due in part to unfavorable weather conditions and currency effects, yet profitability remains on track thanks to tight cost control and an efficient production and distribution system.
Inditex is investing heavily in digital technology, circular collections, and expansion into new markets. Rising dividend payments, a strong financial position, and global brand recognition keep the stock attractive to investors looking for stable, defensive growth.
News & updates
Inditex came out with a series of strategic moves in early 2025 that surprised the market. For example, the fashion company is testing pop-up stores in emerging markets and working on circular return models where worn clothing is directly reused or resold through its own platform.
On the technology front, Inditex took a step forward with an internal AI system that accelerates collection changes and more accurately predicts regional demand. In some countries, it is already experimenting with digital fitting rooms and mirrors that allow customers to try on clothes virtually.
The company has also adjusted its logistics network to be more resilient to geopolitical risks and exchange rates. New distribution centers in Eastern Europe and South America should provide greater security of supply and better margins.
These initiatives demonstrate Inditex's commitment to agility, technology and customer experience - key factors in staying relevant in a retail world that is rapidly changing.
