Mango appoints Eva Gallego to lead its women's division
'We're pleased to welcome such an experienced and accomplished professional as Eva Gallego to the team,' said Casacuberta in a statement. 'We are confident that under her leadership, the women's line will maintain its strong momentum, strengthening its distinctive value proposition and consolidating its position in the market.'
With over two decades of international experience in the fashion industry, Eva Gallego has held senior positions at prominent companies including El Corte Inglés, Tous, Inditex and LVMH. Her career spans product development and strategic transformation across the fashion, luxury, and retail sectors. Most recently, she served as director of accessories, luxury and footwear purchasing at El Corte Inglés. Before that, she led all product divisions at Tous and headed the accessories category at Zara Woman.
This appointment is part of Mango's 4E 2024–2026 Strategic Plan, aimed at reinforcing the group's leadership—particularly within the women's segment, which currently generates 70% of total revenue. Mango Woman's goals include strengthening its unique market positioning and driving further growth through innovation, sustainability and global expansion.
Luis Maseres, the outgoing head of the division, joined Mango in 2014 and has held various strategic roles across commercial and product functions. He played a key role in shaping the brand's accessories strategy and, over the past four and a half years, led the transformation of the women's category—restructuring teams, sharpening its positioning and expanding its reach in multiple markets.
Gallego's appointment follows a leadership shift in June, when Jonathan Andic stepped down as global director of Mango Man to lead his family's asset management companies, which handle business and real estate interests. Mango named Josep Estol as his successor.
With a presence in over 120 markets and more than 2,800 points of sale, Mango has established itself as a major player in the global fashion retail industry. The company, established in 1984 by Isak Andic, reported a 7.6% revenue increase in fiscal year 2024, reaching €3.339 billion. As part of its 4E Strategic Plan, Mango aims to achieve €4 billion in revenue and plans to open 500 new stores worldwide by the end of 2026.

Mango speeds up UK rollout of youth line Mango Teen
Mango will accelerate the expansion of its Teen line in the UK with the Spanish fashion giant saying it has identified a gap in the market for 'youthful, contemporary and quality' fashion, while also noting that the sector's witnessing 'growing teen spending power in the UK'. Supporting its expansion plan, the brand has given Mango Teen its third UK standalone store space at Glasgow's Buchanan Galleries, representing its first in Scotland and first outside of London. The expansion reflects the strong performance of the line since it was first introduced online in the UK in 2021 and the launch of the brand's first standalone Teen stores on London's Carnaby Street and in London Westfield last year. This has led to 'greater brand awareness among a younger demographic of consumers'. Deemed a 'priority market' for Mango, the UK was also the first international market to host a standalone Teen store, and currently the country leads the way with the greatest number of standalone stores. The latest expansion forms part of the brand's overall global growth plan, which saw the company double the number of standalone Teen stores in 2024 to more than 40, as well as its online presence to 95 markets. Berta Moral, global director of Mango Kids and Teen, said: 'Today's teens are turning to fashion to express themselves like never before. We see a clear gap in the market for contemporary, youthful fashion at a reasonable price point and our collection of timeless staples and modern pieces in eye-catching prints and quality fabrics is already resonating with this younger generation.'

El Corte Inglés issues 500 million euros in bonds with a demand that exceeds the supply almost ninefold
El Corte Inglés has closed the issuance of 500 million euro eight-year bonds, with a demand that has exceeded the offer by approximately nine times, and which has had the support of both the national and international investment community, according to the company in a statement. Specifically, this issue, the second issued since obtaining the "investment grade" and aimed at qualified investors, has been made for eight years and matures in July 2033. The bonds will accrue an annual coupon of 3.5%. The distribution group chaired by Marta Álvarez issued these bonds under the issuer's EMTN Program, dated July 15, and is expected to obtain a "BBB-/BBB-" rating from S&P/Fitch. The issuance will enable the company to diversify its sources of financing and the proceeds will be used for general corporate needs. The operation has been articulated with the support of seven underwriters: Barclays, BBVA, BofA Securities, CaixaBank, Citi, Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan, in addition to nine other participating entities: Banco Sabadell, BNP Paribas, Crédit Agricole, Deutsche Bank, Intesa SanPaolo, Kutxabank, Santander, Société Générale and Unicaja, while Linklaters and Allen & Overy Shearman have participated as lawyers in the transaction. The issue comes a year after El Corte Inglés completed another senior bond placement for a further 500 million euros, which received strong demand, exceeding the offer by approximately seven times, and which was supported by both the national and international investment community. The transaction, also aimed at qualified investors, was for a seven-year term maturing in June 2031 and was the first issue with an investment grade corporate rating by the credit agencies Standard & Poor's and Fitch.
