A French group has bought Grupo Servera, one of the main food distributors for the Horeca channel in the Balearic Islands, in an operation that represents a new move within the progressive entry of foreign capital into the island's business fabric. The purchase has already been officialized and the most important part of the agreement, as explained by the president and founder of the entity, Tolo Servera, to ARA Balears, is that "nothing will change". In fact, as he detailed, the purchase involves clients, employees, machinery, brands and everything that makes up the company. "We were clear that we didn't want to sell it to an investment fund that would speculate with jobs, we wanted to continue with the company, and that's why we sold it to a group from the same sector," he explained.

Manacor doesn't want to give up being the effective (and financially rewarding) capital of the Levante region. Therefore, it has recruited the local People's Party, the key that could open the door to the municipality being able to finance itself with an additional €5 million per year, in exchange for satisfying the needs of Sant Llorenç, Son Servera, Capdepera, and Artà with the creation of a services association.
