Fernando Roig Alfonso (born 1947) is a Spanish businessman. He is president of the ceramic tile manufacturer Grupo Pamesa and president and principal shareholder of the football club Villarreal CF, and he holds a nine percent stake in the supermarket chain Mercadona, in which his brother Juan Roig is the majority shareholder.[1] Forbes estimated his net worth at US$2.7 billion as of October 2026.[1]
Roig took over the management of Pamesa, then a struggling tile factory in Almassora in the province of Castellón, in 1976 at the request of his father, and over the following five decades built it into a vertically integrated group covering clay mining, atomised clay production, tile manufacturing, logistics and energy.[2] Valencia Plaza described the group in 2022 as the largest tile manufacturer in Europe; it reported consolidated revenue of €1.13 billion for 2024 and employed 3,076 people at the end of that year.[2][3]
Roig became Villarreal's majority shareholder in May 1997, when the club from Vila-real, a town of about 50,000 people, played in the Segunda División and had never reached the top flight.[4][5] Under his presidency the club was promoted to La Liga a year later, reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League in 2006 and 2022, finished second in La Liga in 2008, and won the UEFA Europa League in 2021. By the start of the 2026 to 2027 season he had completed 30 seasons as president, which Official Press described as the longest tenure of any club president in Spanish football and in Europe's five major leagues.[4]
In July 2024 a criminal court in Castellón convicted Roig of tax fraud and forgery of commercial documents over building work at the club's stadium and training ground in 2004 and 2005 and sentenced him to 11 months and 28 days in prison. The Audiencia Provincial de Castellón overturned the conviction on appeal in September 2026.[6][7] Separately, he was investigated in a corruption case concerning the assets of the former Castellón provincial council president Carlos Fabra; the case against him was dismissed in 2022.[8]
Early life
Roig was born in 1947 in Poble Nou, in Valencia.[9] He is one of several children of the couple who founded Mercadona in 1977; his brothers include Juan Roig, Mercadona's majority shareholder, and Francisco "Paco" Roig, who was president of Valencia CF in the late 1990s.[1][5] According to an EFE profile, Roig loved football from childhood, played the game with his brothers and dreamed of becoming a footballer. His early attachment in the sport was to Valencia CF, and his brother's presidency there gave him a first-hand view of how a club was run.[5]
As a young man Roig worked in his family's meat business before establishing himself professionally on his own account.[5] His father, Francisco Roig, was one of the original investors in the tile company Pamesa.[2]
Career
Mercadona
In 1981 Roig, his brother Juan and their sisters took over Mercadona from their parents, when it was a chain of eight stores. Forbes credits the siblings with turning it into one of Europe's largest food retailers, with nearly 1,700 supermarkets and 115,000 employees.[1] Juan Roig became the majority shareholder, while Fernando kept a minority stake. An interviewer for El Periódico Mediterráneo put his holding at 11 percent in 2006; later reports give it as nine percent, and Forbes still listed a nine percent stake in its profile updated in March 2026.[9][1][10] In the 2006 interview Roig described Juan as "really the soul of Mercadona" and said that both brothers had become better known for their sports interests than for their businesses.[9]
Pamesa (1976 to present)
Rescue and early growth
Pavimentos del Mediterráneo SA (Pamesa) was founded in Almassora in 1972 by 100 investors from outside the ceramics industry, each contributing two million pesetas, with the aim of building a modern tile factory. By 1976 the company was close to bankruptcy. Francisco Roig, one of the original investors, asked his son Fernando to take over its management, and the Roig family gained majority control through a capital increase that few of the other original investors took up.[2] According to the company, production tripled within three months of Roig's arrival and the business soon returned to profit.[2]
Pamesa operated from its single Almassora plant until 1995. It launched its first porcelain stoneware line, under the Compactto brand, in 1987, and adopted cogeneration in 1993 to cut the energy cost of tile production.[2] From 1996 Roig began expanding the group: it bought Cottocer in 1996, set up its first clay atomisation plant, Ondagen, in 1997, created Pamesa do Brasil with a local partner the same year, founded the distributor Geotiles in 1999, bought Compacglass in 2005 and acquired a second atomisation company, Arcillas Atomizadas, in 2007.[2] Roig also led the creation of the gas marketing company Encersa together with other businessmen, from which the group's own gas and electricity supplier Incogas developed.[2] By 2006 he was president of Pamesa Cerámica, Encersa and the wind energy company Renomar.[9]
In November 2006 Roig announced that he was considering selling the group, except for the Brazilian plant and the clay subsidiaries, but a planned sale to a private equity affiliate of BBVA fell through.[2]
Crisis and consolidation
The collapse of Spain's property bubble in 2008 forced a severe restructuring of the Castellón tile industry. Pamesa kept expanding during the downturn, creating Ecoceramic and Prissmacer in 2009, and then grew by acquisition: it bought Navarti in 2014, merging it with Compacglass, and in 2016 bought Tau Cerámica at the auction held after the insolvency of its owner, Taulell.[2] Pamesa's vehicle Portovan offered €8.9 million for Tau. Its bid was not the highest of the seven submitted (the fund Sherpa offered €23.1 million), but the court chose it on the grounds that it gave the best guarantee of continuity, of keeping Tau's 143 employees, who had backed Pamesa's offer, and of paying creditors. Pamesa budgeted €15 million to €20 million to relaunch the business.[11]
The group bought Keramex in 2019.[10] In February 2020 it agreed to buy 50 percent of Argenta and Cifre, two companies with combined 2019 sales of €280 million; the deal was cleared by Spain's competition authority, the CNMC, in November 2020. Because Pamesa did not hold a majority, the two companies were not consolidated into its accounts. El Español reported that with the deal Roig's control extended over ceramics revenue of close to €1 billion, more than the roughly €850 million attributed to its rival Porcelanosa.[10] Roig ran his holdings through the parent company Nomar Patrimonial SL, which El Español said was his vehicle for leading the consolidation of the sector.[10]
In September 2021 Pamesa signed the purchase of the Azuliber group, whose six tile plants (Cerámicas Myr, Azulejera Alcorense, Click Cerámica, Valentia Ceramics, Oset and Azulejos Plaza) produced three million square metres of tile a month, along with clay mines and two atomisation companies running ten plants.[12] At the group's 50th anniversary press conference in June 2022, Roig said Pamesa first had to "digest and reorganise" Azuliber, and that "we are not considering any opportunity" for further purchases.[2]
Energy crisis and later years
The rise in gas and electricity prices in 2022 hit the energy-intensive tile industry hard. Pamesa's natural gas bill rose from €158 million in 2021 to €365 million in 2022, and the group said it spent an average of €1 million a day on electricity and gas that year.[13] To reduce its dependence on gas, the group announced a €250 million investment in what it called "Ecombustible" and opened an atomisation plant in Onda that it described as the first in the world to atomise clay entirely without carbon emissions.[13] Valencia Plaza reported that the plan aimed to replace natural gas with hydrogen in the turbines of the group's cogeneration plants, covering about 250 MW of thermal energy used in atomisation.[14]
In the same period Pamesa raised financing through Spain's alternative fixed-income market, the MARF, seeking €150 million, and applied for a €250 million loan from Mercadona, in which Roig held nine percent at the time. It also sold its stake in the wind energy company Renomar to its partner, Acciona's renewables business, and in 2023 bought half of Danubian Argila, a Romanian clay mining company, to secure supplies of white clay after the Russian invasion of Ukraine disrupted imports.[14] In January 2024 Pamesa sold its 50 percent of Pamesa do Brasil to its local partner, ending 25 years in Brazil and leaving the group without a factory outside Spain. Company sources said the aim was to "focus on the group in Spain".[14]
At the Cersaie trade fair in Bologna in September 2024, Roig forecast that group revenue would reach about €1.2 billion that year and that profit would double. He said Europe would account for 30 to 35 percent of sales, and that the group had to prepare for "years of competition" from Asian producers through better raw materials, design, service and quality.[15] In July 2025, presenting the 2024 results in Vila-real, Roig announced the purchase of Natucer, a maker of extruded and small-format tiles with almost 40 years in business, which became the group's eighth brand.[3]
Pamesa Valencia basketball
As Pamesa grew, Roig looked for a way to "give back to society what he earned in business" and, with his brother Juan, backed basketball in Valencia. He became president of the Pamesa Valencia club, which won the Copa del Rey in 1998, and for a time ran both the basketball club and Villarreal.[5] By 2006 his brother Juan was the club's president.[9]
Villarreal CF (1997 to present)
Acquisition
Roig's route to Villarreal ran through his family's links with Valencia CF and his basketball interests. Valencia CF, under his brother Paco, had signed a cooperation agreement with Villarreal intended to strengthen the smaller club financially and on the pitch, and Roig had become acquainted with José Manuel Llaneza, a Villarreal director.[5] In 1997 the club's president, Pascual Font de Mora, was ill and his family had to decide its future. Llaneza, knowing of Roig's interest, offered him the chance to buy the club's shares. EFE reported that Roig saw Villarreal, then in the Segunda División, as a club where he could carry out his own plans "without having anyone opposing him", in the province where he had built his business life.[5]
Roig became majority shareholder in May 1997.[4] With Llaneza as chief executive, he set out to take the club into the top division within three years by improving its organisation and facilities and investing in youth football.[5] Official Press reported that his public promise was promotion within two years; the team was promoted after one.[4] Before Roig arrived the club had no reserve team; it later created one, which by 2022 had played three seasons in the Segunda División.[16]
Establishment in La Liga and Europe
Villarreal won promotion to La Liga in 1998, 2000 and 2013, and in 22 of Roig's first 25 seasons it played in the top division.[16] His first major signing was the Romanian forward Gica Craioveanu, bought for €3 million in the 2000 to 2001 season. EFE described Martín Palermo as the club's highest-profile signing of the period, Diego Forlán and Marcos Senna as the most profitable, and Juan Román Riquelme as the most gifted.[16] The club won the UEFA Intertoto Cup in 2003 and 2004, and Forlán won both La Liga's top scorer award and the European Golden Shoe while at the club.[16]
In 2006 the club reached the Champions League semi-finals for the first time, and in 2008 it finished second in La Liga.[4] In the 2006 interview, given before the quarter-final second leg against Inter Milan, Roig said that with El Madrigal "full and pushing" the tie could be turned around, and that he had invested heavily in infrastructure and in good players so that the club could later run itself.[9] Among its coaches in his first quarter-century, EFE singled out the Chilean Manuel Pellegrini, who stayed five seasons, and Marcelino García Toral.[16]
The club was relegated in 2012 and promoted again in 2013.[16] On January 8, 2017, it renamed its stadium, El Madrigal, the Estadio de la Cerámica, as a symbol of the province of Castellón and its tile industry. The renaming opened a new source of revenue: Pamesa, Porcelanosa, Argenta Cerámica, Torrecid and Altadia became main sponsors, and other ceramics companies, including Tau Cerámica and Incogas, joined as official sponsors or partners.[17]
Europa League title and later seasons
In 2021 the club won its first major trophy, the UEFA Europa League, beating Manchester United in a shoot-out of 22 penalties in the final in Gdańsk, and the following season it again reached the Champions League semi-finals.[4] It also finished runner-up in the 2021 UEFA Super Cup.[16] By Roig's 25th anniversary in May 2022, the club had played 16 of his 25 seasons in European competition and stood 17th in La Liga's all-time table, which it had not entered before he arrived. Its record transfer fee in that time was €26 million, for the Dutch forward Arnaut Danjuma.[16]
The club celebrated its centenary in 2023, and in the 2025 to 2026 and 2026 to 2027 seasons it played in the Champions League in consecutive seasons for the first time.[4] At the end of the 2025 to 2026 season Marcelino left, and the club appointed Íñigo Pérez, previously coach of Rayo Vallecano.[18] In August 2026, marking 30 years at the club, Roig said that when he arrived "nobody believed" Villarreal would reach the top division, and estimated that it had spent 27 of those 30 years in La Liga and about 20 in European competition.[18] The club marked his 30 seasons with a commemorative logo for the 2026 to 2027 season. Official Press noted that he was approaching Santiago Bernabéu's 35 years as president of Real Madrid.[4]
Leadership and management style
Roig has described himself as a delegator. In 2006 he told El Periódico Mediterráneo: "My style of work is to delegate, which lets you devote yourself to many things if you surround yourself with good people. I have led the project, the idea is mine, but the execution belongs to a great many people." He added that he did not intend to retire.[9] At Villarreal, decisions on players and coaches have passed to the chief executive, his son Fernando Roig Negueroles. In April 2026, asked about Marcelino's future, Roig said: "The chief executive is the one who has had conversations and it is more his work than mine." In August 2026 he said any further signings were "a decision for the chief executive, who is the one who must take those decisions".[19][18]
He has spoken of the club as a community asset rather than personal property. In 2006 he said: "Football is feelings, and I believe one should not do business with feelings... I own the shares, but Villarreal is not mine." He likened his role under Spain's public limited company law to that of "the conductor of the orchestra", with the club belonging to the tens of thousands of people who felt attached to it.[9] He also said that "there always has to be a patron in football", and that after nine years of heavy investment the club's budget was balanced.[9] Official Press summarised the club's model under Roig as financial balance, a culture of effort, youth development and high-quality facilities.[4]
Youth development has been a consistent theme. Players developed at the club during his presidency include Bruno Soriano, Santi Cazorla, Manu Trigueros, Pau Torres, Gerard Moreno, Yeremy Pino and Rodri.[16] In April 2026, with the club third in La Liga, Roig said: "We have to return to a policy of academy players. There is no other way... The coach has to believe in that." He said the next season's budget would be lower, and cited the higher income tax rate paid by players in the Valencian Community (54 percent, against 45 percent in Madrid) as a handicap in keeping and signing players.[19] In August 2026 he said that almost 20 percent of Spain's World Cup-winning squad had come through Villarreal's academy, naming Rodri, Yeremy Pino and Álex Baena. He also described a programme of works at the training ground and the Estadio de la Cerámica, including a new natural grass pitch for the first team and new stands, adding that "you have to go little by little, because you also have to manage the finances".[18]
In business, Roig has favoured control of the whole production chain, from raw materials through atomisation and manufacturing to sales, and Valencia Plaza identified this as one of the keys to Pamesa's growth.[2] By 2021 the group had clay mines in Galve and Seno in Teruel and planned to negotiate with shipping lines and freight forwarders to control distribution to the 150 countries where it sold. Roig ruled out opening shops of his own: "We are manufacturers and we have not been good retailers; I consider myself a good manufacturer and we want to be the best."[20] He built up the group's energy business partly to stand up to the large gas companies on which the energy-intensive tile industry depended.[21]

Financial and market performance
Grupo Pamesa is privately owned and does not publish share prices. Reported revenue grew from €422.51 million in 2015, when the group had 1,163 workers, to €646 million in 2018 for the companies consolidated under Nomar Patrimonial. In 2018 net profit was €38 million and the group employed 1,738 people on average; energy sales, mainly through Incogas, made up about one sixth of revenue.[11][21] Revenue reached €704 million in 2019.[10] In June 2021 Roig said the group had multiplied its revenue and its workforce "by five in a decade".[22]
Revenue for 2021 was reported as €1.22 billion by Valencia Plaza and as €1.097 billion by the company for ceramics-related sales alone.[2][13] In 2022 ceramics-related revenue rose 38 percent to €1.508 billion, mostly because higher energy costs were passed on in prices: square metres sold rose only four percent. Pre-tax profit that year was €81 million.[13] For 2024 the group reported consolidated revenue of €1.132 billion across ceramics, energy and raw materials, pre-tax profit of €114 million, and a workforce up 10.4 percent to 3,076.[3]
Roig's personal wealth rests largely on his Mercadona stake; Forbes lists the source of his wealth as supermarkets.[1] El Español reported in November 2020 that Forbes had raised its estimate of his wealth from €900 million to €1.3 billion, moving him from 31st to 27th among Spain's richest people, and attributed this largely to his Mercadona holding.[10] As of October 2026 Forbes estimated his net worth at US$2.7 billion, ranking him 1,523rd in the world, and recorded 12 appearances on its lists.[1]
Board memberships and outside roles
Besides chairing Grupo Pamesa and Villarreal CF, Roig was president of the gas marketing company Encersa and the wind energy company Renomar in 2006. El Español described Renomar in 2020 as one of the largest wind energy companies in the Valencian Community, owned by Roig.[9][10] Pamesa later sold its stake in Renomar to its partner, Acciona's renewables business.[14] He is a minority shareholder of Mercadona.[1]
Controversies
Villarreal works tax case
On July 10, 2024, Criminal Court No. 1 of Castellón convicted Roig and two Villarreal managing directors of two offences against the Public Treasury, in combination with two continuing offences of forgery of commercial documents. The case concerned renovation work at the club's training ground and at El Madrigal stadium in 2004 and 2005. The court sentenced Roig to 11 months and 28 days in prison and a fine, applying a mitigating factor for excessive delay. In all, 11 people were convicted and four acquitted.[23][6] The court found a fraud of €525,440 in VAT (€187,840 for 2004 and €336,600 for 2005), wrongly deducted on inflated invoices from the contractor Estructuras, Viviendas y Carreteras and its subcontractors for work that "did not correspond to reality". It held that the club, "with the approval" of Roig, had paid the fictitious invoices with short-dated promissory notes.[6] Villarreal said it would appeal and that it remained "convinced of the innocence" of its directors.[6][24]
In September 2026 the Audiencia Provincial de Castellón upheld Roig's appeal and set aside the conviction. The court accepted that a network of false invoicing had existed, but found insufficient evidence that Roig or the club's officials knew of it or intended to defraud, and concluded that criminal liability could not be attributed to the president or to the club. Nostresport reported that the ruling also affected the other defendants convicted as necessary collaborators.[7]
Carlos Fabra case
Roig was a long-standing associate of Carlos Fabra, the former president of the Castellón provincial council and of the People's Party in the province. In 2006, while Fabra faced several court cases, El Periódico Mediterráneo noted Roig's firm defence of him.[9] Between 2006 and 2011 Villarreal received €18.76 million for carrying advertising for Castellón Airport, a public company of which Fabra was a director.[25]
In a 2021 investigation into whether Fabra had hidden assets to avoid paying a tax fraud sentence handed down in 2013, the Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office alleged that Roig and companies linked to him had given Fabra €1.7 million in return for the airport's sponsorship of the club. The prosecutor identified a €1.4 million mortgage-backed loan to Fabra's family, formalised in 2013 and used partly to settle €450,000 paid to Fabra earlier through the company Migumi, and a €300,000 cheque in 2014, all presented as loans. The prosecutor described them as in reality donations made because of Fabra's public offices. Roig and his son told the court the loans had not been repaid.[25] In June 2021 an investigating judge sent Fabra, members of his family and five businessmen, including Roig and his son, for trial; the prosecutor sought four years and seven months in prison for Roig and for his son, for cooperating in insolvency and for bribery.[26][27]
The Audiencia Provincial de Castellón later partly annulled the committal for Roig, his son and another businessman, because they had not been properly informed of their rights when questioned as suspects, and they had to give evidence again.[28] In April 2022 the investigating judge found no link between the airport's sponsorship of Villarreal and Roig's loans to Fabra, and dismissed the case against Roig, his son and the Migumi administrator.[8]
Personal life
Roig is married to Elena Negueroles, and the couple have two children.[9][1] Their son, Fernando Roig Negueroles, is chief executive of Villarreal CF and has administered companies in his father's circle, including Nerofer SL.[19][25] Forbes gives his residence as Castellón.[1] When he was named an adopted son of Vila-real in February 2006, Roig said the honour came "just at a time when my wife and I have lost the condition of being children, having lost our mothers".[29]
Recognition
- 2006: Named Hijo Adoptivo (adopted son) of Vila-real by the town council at a ceremony in the municipal auditorium attended by more than 500 guests. The mayor, Manuel Vilanova, called him "the best ambassador of the city"; according to Nostresport, the title had not been awarded for 40 years.[29]
- 2026: Villarreal CF launched a commemorative logo and a programme of events to mark his 30 seasons as president.[4]
