Closed companies segmented by province

Historical comparison of company closures

Company closures show strong seasonality — as you can easily verify in the historical time series below — and, unsurprisingly, June once again marked an absolute low point for the year so far.

With 1,818 company closures, June 2025 was the best June of the last five years, with a drop of nearly 3% compared to 2024.

Company closures by province

If we break June’s figure down by province, we see that exactly half of all closures are concentrated in just five provinces: Baleares, Málaga, Valencia, Barcelona and Madrid; with the last two alone accounting for 36% of the total closures that month.

The map above doesn’t add a huge amount of detail, since in as many as 13 provinces the number of closures doesn’t even reach double digits.

Let’s see if for the next instalments I can find the time to include a map that shows closure ratios relative to the total number of companies in each province, rather than absolute totals…

Any suggestions are very welcome in the comments, by the way ;)

Closures, openings, and net company balance

Beyond the closures figure, the country’s net company balance remained strongly positive in June 2025, with a total of 6 new companies opened for every company that closed.

The Comunidad Valenciana stands out positively, with +9.5 companies opened for every company closed during June 2025.
