Reading the figures

The 531 stores are a record drawn from Foursquare Open Places, not a count published by the brand — this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish.

The reach indicators — coverage, index by province — are robust to that bias: they measure a distance and a population, which a location described twice does not move. Recorded .

Frequently asked questions about Spar in Spain

Tout ce que vous devez savoir sur nos solutions.

How many stores does Spar have in Spain?

The record of 23 August 2026 identifies 531 Spar stores in Spain, across 34 provinces. This is a record, not an official count: this country has not been calibrated yet — its recorded counts have not been confronted with the network sizes brands publish. The figure serves to compare networks rather than to count stores.

What share of Spain does Spar reach?

28.8 % of the population lives within 5 kilometres of a Spar, and 45.4 % within 10 kilometres. Coverage counts each population cell once, however many locations reach it, which makes it insensitive to the double-counting that affects raw location totals.

Is Spar denser in Spain or in France?

Per 100,000 inhabitants, Spar has 1.12 stores in Spain against 1.45 in France — a density 23 % lower. Both records come from the same source and the same method, which is the condition for the gap to mean anything.
