Business Investments
The history of Veepee in Barcelona started in 2006 when they opened their first subsidiary outside France. In 2016, the online marketplace acquired Catalan company Privalia for around €500M, one of Europe's largest e-commerce operations in recent years.
Veepee now has a team of more than 1,000 people in Spain and has built a distribution center and a digital factory in Catalonia for all of Southern Europe. We’ve interviewed Albert Serrano, Managing Director of Spain Veepee Group, and Marta Santiago, Digital Productions Director, to hear why tech companies should choose Barcelona to grow their businesses.
