The numbers signal a “consolidated recovery in the sector, which grew very little or even negatively in the past few years,” FIAB’s president, Arturo Gil, said.
Gil added that Spanish households spent €1,170 per person last year, up €72 from 2003. The industry accounted for 17% of Spain’s industrial output.
Imports, however, surged 6.5% to €15bn compared to a 5.4% jump in exports to €13bn, reversing a strong exports trend.
