Forbes reported that Ortega became the world's richest man on Wednesday when Inditex shares went up 2.5 per cent.He now has a larger net worth than US investor Warren Buffett and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
How did the son of a railroad worker in Fascist Spain hit the big time?
Ortega began his professional life at 14 as a delivery boy with a shirt-maker in Coruna, a blustery city in Northern Spain. Within a few years he had set up a workshop making nightgowns, lingerie and babywear. In 1963, with the equivalent of €30 (so legend has it) he founded a company called Confecciones GOA – his initials, backwards.
You will Be surprise to know that Amancia Ortega who is now world's richest man is due to his daughter Marta is expected to take over the billion pound company
Presumably Zara was named after a daughter?
Actually it was named after Zorba the Greek, Ortega and his wife Rosalia’s favourite film – sort of. Hearing of the proposed name, the owner of a nearby bar, also called Zorba, complained. Conciliatory yet budget conscious, Ortega searched for an alternative name that would use (almost) the letters he’d already had made. Zara, with its budget versions of catwalk hits, opened in Coruna in 1975. All things considered, it has not been a disaster. Ortega began to expand into the rest of Spain, invading Portugal in 1988, the USA the following year and France in 1990. The UK, which already had a ferociously competitive high street, took a bit longer. The first Zara opened in London in 1998. It too was a smash. These days no town can consider itself a serious retail magnate without a Zara. When Sydney finally got a branch in 2011, crowd barriers had to be maintained for weeks. As one Sydney-sider remarked sardonically, “Thank God, we won’t be a third-world fashion country any more.”
