Herbolario Navarro's master formula to endure 250 years

El Periódico Mediterráneo - General29 August 2026 at 05:00

Herbolario Navarro, a Spanish chain of natural products and phytotherapy stores, celebrates 250 years of existence. The company closed 2025 with a turnover of 65 million euros, representing a 30% growth compared to the previous year. It currently operates 84 stores throughout Spain.

For 2026, Herbolario Navarro has set the goal of exceeding 84 million euros in turnover. If achieved, this figure would represent the biggest economic leap in the company's history since its founding 250 years ago.

The article suggests that remaining active for over two centuries requires great care and a good business strategy. The company has managed not only to survive but also to grow significantly in a competitive market.

BYD returns to profit with bet on exports to Europe and gains ground in Portugal

BYD returned to quarterly profit growth in Q2 2025, with net profit rising 30% to 8.2 billion yuan, breaking a four-quarter decline streak. This recovery is largely due to strong export expansion, which grew 71% in the first half, accounting for 44% of the company's total sales. Europe is one front of this strategy, and Portugal serves as a concrete example of this expansion: the brand sold 6,059 vehicles in 2025, a 94.1% increase from the previous year, achieving a 2.7% share of the Portuguese passenger car market and 9.4% in the electric segment. BYD surpassed 10,000 vehicles sold since entering Portugal in 2023, representing more than half of Chinese brand sales in the country. Despite the positive signal, the accumulated results for the first half show that pressure in the Chinese domestic market persists, and the company faces challenges related to trade policies, distribution costs, and the response from traditional European manufacturers.
