El Corte Inglés - statistics & facts
With over 80 years of history, El Corte Inglés can be considered a Spanish staple. The department store group that originally took its name from a small tailor’s shop in Madrid has since expanded its portfolio of business segments. Although still headquartered in the capital, the Spanish group now also operates a travel agency and a security company, among others. Still, the biggest and most profitable business segment of El Corte Inglés is that of retail.
