Licences in place for Alcampo's 'mega-centre' in Mallorca

The small retailers' associations have demanded that the Council of Mallorca blocks the development. But municipal regulations introduced prior to 2019, when new rules were introduced for commercial centre development, take precedence over island regulations, even if they are of a lower rank. Marratxi Town Hall has therefore been working on giving its approval and has now done so in respect of the first phase. This will allow the company to undertake work to alter road accesses, bury a high-voltage cable and create a green area - a park for residents.
