The green energy and retail sectors are also among the top sectors in Romania that attract investments from Spain.

Spanish companies have identified a very high potential for development in the local fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and retail industries, considering that now few Spanish products are sold in Romania. At the same time, the agri-food industry is on an upswing in terms of interest for businesspeople in Spain.

Spain ranked 13th in terms of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Romania in 2020, according to the latest report published by Romania’s central bank.

Currently, over 180 Spanish companies operate in Romania, of which 10% are members of the ASEMER association.

More and more Spanish-held companies are active in the Romanian business environment and ASEMER expects their number will continue to grow.

ASEMER supports the interests of all Spanish companies and professionals operating in Romania. The main objectives of the association are to promote and strengthen the economic ties between Spanish companies and entrepreneurs and Romanian organizations and companies.
