BarcelonaWhen, during the term of Josep Maria Bartomeu, the Barça Corporate was conceived, the jewel in the crown of this set of assets of the Barça entity was very clear: Barça Licensing & Merchandising (BLM), the shops and the retail of the club. In the background are Barça Studios (the audiovisual production company), the Barça Innovation Hub (the scientific research space) and the Barça Academies (Barça football schools around the world). BLM will close this fiscal year 2021-2022, the first with a certain return to normalcy after the start of the coronavirus pandemic, with 56 million revenue. And the forecast of the Catalan entity, which has just opened its seventh store in the Sagrada Família, is that the figure will almost double in the 2022-2023 academic year.
