Farmers’ protests in Spain: logistics impact and business advice

Farmers’ protests in Spain, accompanied by roadblocks with tractors, could seriously affect logistics and supply chains. The demonstrations are expected to affect key transport routes in February, which could cause delays in deliveries and increase transportation costs.

How ​​will the farmers’ protests affect logistics?

Planned protests in the regions of Castilla y León, Navarra, La Rioja, Catalonia and Aragon could create serious difficulties for the transportation of goods. The main risks for logistics companies include:

• Blockage of major transport routes, such as the AP-7, C-25, A-2 and N-II.
• Delays in deliveries, which could disrupt delivery schedules.
• Increased fuel and transport costs as companies will have to find detours.
• Risks of infrastructure damage due to mass protests.

What can businesses do to minimize the consequences?

To avoid serious disruptions to logistics processes, companies should prepare in advance:

1. Monitor the situation in real time

• Use digital platforms for tracking traffic and GPS monitoring.
• Check for updates from the Catalan Road Service and local authorities.

2. Plan alternative routes

• Develop detours and consider multimodal transport (rail, sea).
• Increase stockpiles of goods in regions that may be isolated.

3. Prompt communication with partners and customers

• Warn customers in advance of possible delays in deliveries.
• Work closely with local carriers to promptly change logistics solutions.
