Inditex Opens Inclusive For&From Store in Mexico City

Inditex has opened its first For&From store in Mexico, located at the Samara Shops shopping center in Mexico City. The For&From model supports the social and labor integration of people with disabilities. This marks the fourth country to adopt the initiative, following openings in Spain, Italy, and Portugal.

The stores operate under a self-sustaining model managed by specialized social organizations. Inditex provides an initial donation to establish the store, which then generates revenue by selling previous campaign products at reduced prices. All profits fund social projects managed by partner organizations.

The new Mexico City store, specializing in footwear for men, women, and children, is managed by CONFE, a local organization with over 46 years of experience representing a network of more than 100 groups across the country. The store employs nine individuals with various disabilities.

Inditex currently operates 16 For&From stores, which have created job opportunities for more than 850 people with disabilities and generated over €8.5 million for social projects. The initiative aims to raise awareness of workplace inclusion, improve accessibility, and remove barriers for individuals with disabilities.

The For&From concept was first launched in 2002 with a Massimo Dutti store in Palafolls, Barcelona. Other Inditex brands, including Pull&Bear, Bershka, Stradivarius, Oysho, and Tempe Inditex, have since joined the initiative.
