Cortefiel began in 1880 as a small merceria (haberdashery) at Calle de Romanones 7 in central Madrid.

Large-scale textile manufacturing followed in the 1950s and 60s, and the company opened stores in the United States as early as 1968, with broader international expansion from the 1990s onward. By 2015 the group - by then encompassing several fashion chains including Cortefiel, Springfield, Women'secret and Pedro del Hierro - employed roughly 9,000 people across about 1,900 stores in 72 countries; the parent company later rebranded as Tendam.
