Spain

Spain represents one of the group's strategic markets. All of the activities offered to clients as an integrated operator in Spain – fixed, mobile, internet, ADSL TV – have been grouped together under the Orange brand since October 2006. On 31 December 2008, Orange had more than 11 million clients in Spain.
 On convergence, the Spanish version of the first fixed and mobile telephone unik was launched in December 2006 under the name of  “unico“.
 On the fixed-line network, Orange is pushing ahead with the development of unbundling – with 55% of its ADSL customer base unbundled at the end of 2006 – while facilitating the migration of its customers over to broadband. On the mobile network, Orange has ramped up its mobile broadband coverage, with over 70% of the Spanish population covered at the end of 2006.

Its portal www.orange.es brought together nearly 10 millions  of unique visitors in December 2008 which accounts for the 5th web audience of the country.
In June 2007, the group announced the acquisition of a 100% stake in Ya.com, consolidating Orange’s position as number two on the Spanish ADSL market with more than one million subscribers, offering Spanish consumers a genuine alternative to the incumbent operator.
In January 2008, Orange Spain and Yoigo announced the signature of an agreement to share their mobile network infrastructure throughout Spain.
In July 2008, Orange Spain announced the opening of 300 shops under the Orange brand in the next two to three years, including 30 to 40 shops in 2008.
