The economic impact generated by Mercadona in a region is estimated by taking into account both the spending that Mercadona stores carry out within the region (salaries and wages, operating expenses, purchases from suppliers in the region, etc.) and the expenses incurred by Mercadona stores from other regions (and central services) in favor of suppliers from Extremadura.

The report aims to estimate the total economic impact of Mercadona in Extremadura in terms of output, value added and employment by using an input-output methodology based on the latest information available from the input-output tables for Extremadura.
