Spain: Consumer Profile

October 2026

Spain is a maturing, ageing and increasingly diverse market. Population growth relies on positive net migration, with a fertility rate of 1.1 children per woman below the replacement level of 2.1. GDP growth of 2.8% and falling unemployment coexist with an acute housing affordability squeeze. Persistent cost-of-living pressures have entrenched a value-first mindset, while an ageing yet health-conscious population sustains demand for wellness, longevity and premium niche products.
