After spending years sailing, an entrepreneur recognized the untapped potential in the nautical sector of the Balearic Islands and set out to boost its competitiveness in the Mediterranean. In 2015, he established AlexPalma, then Barco Proyectos Náuticos in 2017, followed by Casco Proyectos Náuticos and Yacht Special Projects in 2019. 

This led to the establishment of Grupo Barco, a well-respected yacht repair and maintenance company in Mallorca. In 2023, he sold these businesses to pursue a new venture, UNIC MARINE. (with partners GRUPO VERLIO and ESTELA SHIPPING BARCELONA S.L.)
