Academic community

We are collaborating with the academic community in the development of committed and transparent business models.

Guided tours

Guided tours

We also collaborate with business schools and universities offering guided tours to their students to get to know our business management model in situ.

We have held 516 guided tours, many of which to national and international students.

These guided tours are held from Mondays to Fridays, on the premises of the Headquarters (Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona). The visits last approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, and share: the history and evolution of the company, the brand's expansion and quality secrets, the key points for the relationship between franchiser and franchise holder, our people management policies, our social commitment through the 13 social action plans and quality in services. Visitors also see each and every department that makes up the headquarters, and other installations such as: the fitness centre, solarium, leisure-internet room, etc.. Guided tour request.

MRW case study

Similarly, business schools and universities have included MRW business and social philosophy and policy and its evolution as a case study in its study programmes. This is currently being studied at IESE, at the Business Institute, at the San Telmo University in Seville and has even been expounded at Harvard through ESADE.

Participation in lectures

Participation in lectures

Every year the number of seminars in which MRW is invited to participate grows, with invitations from entities such as: consultancy firms, universities, business schools, associations, clubs of professionals, etc. These institutions ask us to share our experience in human resources and corporate responsibility policies, in quality management, commercial management and logistics, or the path and evolution of the brand in the Franchise system.

In 2009, MRW took part in 102 seminars and lectures. Access the lectures...
