Inca’s economy has historically been driven by its leather and footwear industry, which continues to be a major part of the local economy today. Several well-known brands, including Camper, originated in Inca, and the city is still home to numerous leather workshops and stores where visitors can purchase high-quality goods. The Fira del Dijous Bo, held every November, celebrates this tradition with an expansive market that highlights the city’s agricultural and artisan industries.
In addition to leather, Inca benefits from a growing tourism sector, with visitors attracted to its authentic Mallorcan charm, its proximity to the Serra de Tramuntana mountains, and its vibrant weekly market. Agriculture also remains an important part of the local economy, with the fertile plains surrounding Inca producing olives, wine, and other typical Mediterranean crops.
In recent years, the city has also begun to diversify its economy with investments in renewable energy and sustainable tourism, making it an attractive location for eco-conscious businesses and visitors.
