01.15 Escola Superior de Comerç i Distribució (ESODI)

Escola Superior de Comerç i Distribució (ESCODI) was established in 2000 in Terrassa as a foundation with the aim of providing specialized education in the fields of commerce, distribution, and retail. From its inception, the institution was founded with a clear mission to bridge the gap between academia and business, addressing the needs of a key sector of the Catalan economy.

In 2007, it began offering the Graduat en Direcció de Comerç i Distribució as a proprietary degree of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB), a pioneering program in Catalonia and Spain.

From the 2015-2016 academic year onwards, it became affiliated with the Universitat de Barcelona (UB), enabling it to offer the official Grau en Comerç i Distribució. Today, ESCODI is the only university institution in Catalonia specialized in this field.
