This is the company's 15th distribution centre in Europe, with the aim of strengthening supply in the Iberian Peninsula.

Since opening its first store in Spain at the end of 2022 and in Portugal in February 2024, Action has invested in the development of its business. It currently has 74 stores in Spain and 17 in Portugal, employing more than 1,900 people in both countries.

The new Distribution Centre in Illescas will be a milestone in terms of sustainability for the company. It is Action's first gas-free centre, built to the highest technological and environmental standards, according to Jornal Económico.

All aspects of the centre have been designed with a focus on sustainability, including construction materials and equipment. The centre has advanced water, energy and waste management systems, as well as energy efficiency solutions such as solar panels for water heating, photovoltaic panels for electricity production, smart energy and water meters, LED lighting and charging stations for electric vehicles.
