  "account": "Ahorramas has unexpectedly ousted its CEO, Ramón Bosch Illa, amidst a growth plan rollout. The company has remained tight-lipped about Bosch's potential successor. Bosch, who joined Ahorramas in February 2024, succeeded Eusebio Rubio Martín in the role. The company expressed gratitude for Bosch's dedication, commitment, and contributions during his tenure, as well as his collaboration with the team to drive growth and development. Bosch, in his resignation letter, thanked the company for its trust and the support and commitment from the entire management team, which enabled the achievement of significant milestones such as defining the strategic plan for the coming years.\n\nAhorramas, which has not yet disclosed Bosch's replacement, assures that it will proceed with the new phase with continuity and stability, maintaining its commitments to employees, customers, suppliers, and collaborators while focusing on strengthening its business model and responding to new market needs. The company plans to advance in the growth and modernization of its commercial network, strengthen its proximity model, and consolidate its presence in the markets it operates in.\n\nBosch, a graduate in Medicine from the University of Barcelona, brings over twenty years of experience in the food distribution and retail sectors. Before joining Ahorramas, he worked for Boston Consulting Group (BCG) and served as the financial director of Mercadona for nearly two decades. The company highlighted that Bosch's main challenge would be to lead the ambitious growth strategy, centered on innovation, improving competitiveness in the market, and accelerating growth. Ahorramas concluded its 2025 fiscal year with a 13.8% drop in profit to 109 million euros, following its record-breaking profits in the previous year, while reporting an EBITDA 5.4% below 2024 levels, at 210 million euros. The company's sales increased by 6.1% to 2.422 million euros, attributed to the expansion of its commercial network, strengthening its store model, and investing in its employees.\n\nSince 2022, the company's sales have grown by 26%. The company attributes its recent financial performance to the context of the fiscal year and the investor's efforts made in recent months during a period of sustained growth for Ahorramas. The company maintains a positive evolution in sales and a solid business foundation, with a medium and long-term strategic approach. This evolution is linked to the current context and the level of investment undertaken, focusing on sustained growth rather than the immediate evolution of a single indicator, the company stated.",
