Amazon's Spanish subsidiary closed 2025 with revenues of 9 billion euros, 12.5% more than the previous year. The company generated a net profit of 290 million and allocated 1.5 billion to tax payments. Investments reached 6.5 billion, enabling the creation of 30,000 permanent jobs with average salaries of 1,700 euros per month.
The cloud gains weight in the local investment strategy ☁️
AWS, Amazon's cloud division, has been the engine behind much of the infrastructure investment in Spain. Data centers deployed in Aragon and other regions have absorbed more than half of the 6.5 billion budget. This expansion responds to the growing demand for local computing capacity, necessary for artificial intelligence services and enterprise storage. The company plans to double this capacity over the next two years.

With 30,000 permanent jobs and salaries of 1,700 euros, Amazon can now boast of being one of the largest job creators in the country. However, workers say the salary comes with a free Prime subscription and the opportunity to memorize the postal code of each warehouse. What it does not include is a discount on the electricity bill after spending eight hours under LED lights.
