Lorenzana discusses progress on the municipality’s industrial estate with Ribeira business leaders

Ribeira (A Coruña), 3 November 2026

The Regional Minister for Economy and Industry, María Jesús Lorenzana, today discussed progress on the planning and approval process for the municipality’s future industrial estate with the Mayor of Ribeira, María Sampedro, and a group of business leaders.

Lorenzana explained that the contract to update the infrastructure development plans has already been awarded, paving the way for the site’s development and providing the municipality with more business land. She reiterated that the Xunta plans to begin the tendering process this year for the construction of the new estate, which will cover almost 260,000 square metres.

As she explained, the aim is to adapt the existing plans to practical construction requirements and the technical and financial criteria that will govern the subsequent works tender, while also ensuring closer coordination between the preparation of the plans, the awarding of the works contract and construction itself. This is one of the developments within the 4.2 million square metres of land currently undergoing planning and approval, infrastructure development or construction in the province of A Coruña.
