Puro Group will manage the new Punta del Gas space in Palma for up to 14 years following the end of the Ánima Beach concession. This project, with an investment of approximately 2.1 million euros, will transform the site into a restaurant, ice cream parlor, spa, and over a thousand square meters of terrace facing the sea. The renovation, designed by the architectural firm Sánchez-Cantalejo+Tomás, aims to better integrate the establishment with its surroundings and is expected to be completed in about four months.

Chinese entrepreneurs from the mainland have selected Mallorca as their new business hub, drawn by a burgeoning market and less intense competition. The Chinese community, which comprises around 8,000 residents on the island, is diversifying its offerings, particularly in the food sector, and opening jewelry stores in key shopping areas of Palma. Additionally, the popularity of Asian cuisine has surged among young people, leading to the opening of more specialty supermarkets and buffet restaurants across the island.
