SPAL’s philosophy is to grow by investing in marketing, and delivering their services rather than investing substantial resources in costly centralized facilities or buying market share through premium-priced acquisitions.

SPAL is negotiating with their banks to reduce the current commissions and other financial fees incurred during the previous year. SPAL is restructuring the Company's operations to include four business areas (enterprises, local residential customers, foreign residential customers and other business).
