With an average of twelve new stores a week opening over the first quarter across 29 counties, Inditex was able to compensate for dour retail sales in its domestic market, and instead focus on growth in Asia, Australia and eastern Europe. The business has also been able to tap into the fast fashion demand growing globally, with a design-to-shop-floor turnaround of two weeks.
