Mercadona VP Herrero to fund restoration of Alicante's medieval wall

Hortensia Herrero, vice president of Spanish supermarket chain Mercadona, will finance the restoration of Alicante's 470-meter medieval wall dating from the 11th and 13th centuries. The project is a private cultural heritage initiative, with details on scope and timeline still emerging. It signals continued private investment in regional heritage but has limited immediate market impact.
