AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Electricity Bills: Spain’s wholesale power price is set to jump 182% on Monday to €215.11/MWh, its highest level of 2026 so far; the peak is forecast for 9 p.m. Sales Calls: New Spanish rules require commercial calls to use numbers beginning with 400, making sales pitches easier to spot and return calls impossible. Food Safety: A cyberattack on supermarket refrigeration systems reportedly reached Spain as well as several other European countries; French stores reported spoiled food. Retail: Mercadona has opened its first Algarve store in Portimão and plans another in Faro next month, extending the Spanish chain’s reach in Portugal. Inflation: Spain’s annual inflation rate was confirmed at 4.9%, its highest since 2023, adding pressure to household budgets.
