Inditex Chair Marta Ortega Pérez, in her opening remarks to shareholders at the General Shareholders' Meeting, highlighted the company's strong people-centred culture, which enables it to evolve without ever losing sight of its identity: "Trends come and go, fashion changes, but our connection with people endures".

According to Marta Ortega, this connection has enabled Inditex "to remain strong over time" and "to do so without ever losing what defines us: our culture, our soul".

"This way of understanding our business has allowed us to preserve something that is particularly difficult once an organisation reaches our scale: the ability to act with agility and a strong sense of responsibility while always remaining close to people," she said. She added: "We are fortunate to be part of a deeply human sector that accompanies the everyday lives of millions of people. It is present in that simple, almost intimate daily gesture of choosing how we want to present ourselves to the world."

Looking ahead, the Inditex Chair expressed the Group's ambition "to reach even further, connect with more people, and become more Inditex than ever, every single day," adding that she was "confident that we will continue moving in that direction because we have an extraordinary team."

Chief Executive Officer Óscar García Maceiras then outlined the Group's key strategic priorities aimed at further strengthening the differentiation of all its commercial formats in order to attract new customers while deepening relationships with existing ones: "All our brands continue to execute ambitious expansion plans, while offering new services and new functionalities to customers who are increasingly experience-driven and demanding". 

The Chief Executive Officer also emphasised the importance of technological innovation at Inditex in enhancing both employee and customer experience: "We have invested consistently in modernising our technology architecture, strengthening our data capabilities and establishing robust technology governance frameworks. Artificial Intelligence at Inditex is embedded across the organisation, driving productivity, operational efficiency, technological development and customer experience".

Óscar García Maceiras also updated on several initiatives implemented by the Group to continue reducing its environmental impact. These include the Supply Chain Transformation Plan which Inditex is carrying out in collaboration with its suppliers, and "involves action plans being implemented across nearly one thousand facilities, those with the most significant impact in terms of water and energy consumption", as well as transport efficiency measures, which have enabled "more than 98% of our maritime sourcing routes in 2025 to use more sustainable fuels". He also highlighted the 1,200 community investment projects carried out by the Group during 2025, representing an investment of €175 million—30% more than the previous year—and benefiting more than four million people.

Finally, Óscar García Maceiras commemorated the 25th anniversary of Inditex as a listed company: "Every day we are subject to the scrutiny of the financial markets, to which we respond with rigour and discipline, while never losing sight of the long-term commitment we have made to all of you".
