The objective of this study conducted for Mercadona is to estimate the economic impact the company has had on the Spanish economy in terms of employment and income (value added) during 2018. To this end, three types of impacts are estimated: a) direct, deriving from the final sale of products in their stores; b) indirect, deriving from Mercadona’s activity throughout the different sectors of the economy as a result of purchases from their suppliers and hiring various types of services; and c) induced, deriving from the consumption of income generated through direct and indirect impacts.
