Raimon Carrasco

Catalan businessman (1924–2022)

Raimon Carrasco is remembered in business for decisions whose consequences outlived the decade that made them.

The record lists Raimon Carrasco as Catalan businessman (1924–2022).

Raimon Carrasco was born at Barcelona in 1924. His recorded nationality is Spain. He was educated at IESE Business School.

Post-war business was mass-market and increasingly multinational, managed by professionals rather than owners.

He worked as entrepreneur and businessperson.

What a company leaves behind is usually infrastructure, habit and employment rather than a name.

That the business was built from Spain shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.

Raimon Carrasco died in 2022, aged 98. What remains is the enterprise and its consequences, which is the only durable measure of a commercial life.
