A blow to Belén Esteban: her gazpacho sinks

Belén Esteban is, without a doubt, one of the most recognized characters on the television scene in Spain. After the end of Sálvame, the television collaborator made it clear that she will not lack her projects. In fact, she has recently recorded a reality show with Netflix in which she will star with seven other collaborators from the now defunct Mediaset format. However, leaving television aside, 'the people's princess' has other projects, such as her food products company, a business that in the past has brought her good news... although now it has become a headache. head for her.

A few years ago, Belén decided to start a new project, away from television. The renowned talk show host embarked on a new project, called Sabores de la Esteban. It is a company that is dedicated to the marketing of potato chips, bottles of gazpacho and salmorejo, jars of zucchini cream, vegetables and pumpkin, among other products. The products had great recognition in their beginnings, reaching all supermarkets in Spain.

However, the trend of his company's results has not been entirely good in recent months, and Sabores de la Esteban is on its way to being more of a problem for the television company. As the media outlet La Razón points out, the company's last fiscal year has been a disaster compared to previous years. The company was started in April 2021, but its latest results have not been particularly positive. The drop in profits has been truly alarming, as stated by the aforementioned medium.

According to the data provided by this information, the company had a profit of 9,472.06 euros. An amount that contrasts with the 161,986.41 euros it collected in the previous year. That is to say, the company's profits have fallen by around 94%, around 152,000 euros. This has had some consequences, such as the business having gone from having 212,867.08 euros in liquid assets to 16,040.14 euros. This has caused the real value of the company's assets to plummet by over 92%. Without a doubt, bad news for Belén, who invested a lot in this business.

Now, Paracuellos del Jarama will have to recover from this setback by looking for a way to get its company back afloat next year... all this if it does not want to return to a situation of economic precariousness. Added to this setback is the cancellation of Sálvame, the program that marked a before and after in her life and in which she collaborated practically daily for fourteen years.

A few weeks ago, the television station spoke about its current employment situation, after the end of Sálvame and the recordings with Netflix. "I'm not unemployed," said the woman from Paracuellos del Jarama. "For the people who are happy: they haven't fired me. I am from 'La Fábrica de la Tele', and I will continue to be from 'La Fábrica de la Tele'. And by the way, there will be surprises," said Esteban, leaving hint that there may soon be new projects for her. "I just have to tell people that in October don't miss Netflix, that you are going to see a fantasy," he said. We will have to wait to find out if, in the same way, she will be able to continue with her gazpacho company.
