Arteijo’s economy is largely driven by industry, with a particular emphasis on textiles, thanks to the presence of Inditex, the parent company of well-known global fashion brands such as Zara. This multinational corporation has its headquarters nearby, providing significant employment and economic growth for the town. In addition to textiles, Arteijo benefits from fishing and agriculture, both of which play important roles in the local economy.
Tourism is also becoming an increasingly important sector in Arteijo, as more visitors discover its beautiful landscapes and cultural offerings. The town’s proximity to both A Coruña and the coast makes it a popular choice for holidaymakers, especially those seeking a more tranquil, nature-oriented experience.
