The achievements of this store are visible in the social and labour integration of its staff. From a medical perspective, significant improvement has been achieved as regards the health of such workers. In the year 2009, the first employee of a 'for&from' store joined the staff of a regular Massimo Dutti outlet, this being the final goal of the whole project.

In November 2007, the project took a step forward, with the launching in Allariz of a second Massimo Dutti store linked to the 'for&from' project. The staff of this store is made up of physically disabled people. Additionally, further goals of the project were met, the store having being designed in such a manner as to make it a hallmark as regards accessibility and barrier-freedom. The Confederación Galega de Persoas con Discapacidade is Inditex's partner in this store.

Finally in August 2008, Inditex and the Fundació Molí d'en Puigvert opened a new store in Palafolls, of Bershka format, that also employs people with severe mental disorders. As provided in the Corporate Social Responsibility Report, these three stores have an aggregate staff of 14 employees and their net sales reached some two million euros in FY2009.
