Mercadona is Spain's leading grocery retailer, operating a network of over 1,600 supermarkets across Spain and Portugal. As a dominant force in the Spanish retail industry, the company manages an extensive supply chain, a sophisticated logistics network, and a rapidly growing e-commerce platform, employing nearly 100,000 people.

Headquartered in Valencia, Mercadona is one of the country's largest private employers and is well-known for its policy of offering permanent contracts to all employees from their first day.
