“This anniversary is, above all, a shared celebration. Thanks to the trust of thousands of families, we have been able to grow alongside Gran Canaria for four decades and continue to be part of our customers’ everyday lives,” says Dunia Pérez, Managing Director of SPAR Gran Canaria.

Four decades growing with Gran Canaria

SPAR Gran Canaria was founded in 1986 when four local entrepreneurs joined forces to strengthen their businesses. A year later, the business was granted a license to operate the SPAR retail network. The company has maintained 100% Canarian ownership and management ever since.

Commitment to local production has been a pillar of its development. The chain currently works with more than 200 farmers and suppliers on the island and sells a wide range of zero-kilometre products, helping to strengthen Gran Canaria’s primary sector.

The 40 years belong to SPAR Gran Canaria’s employees, farmers, suppliers, and partners. Thanks to them, the SPAR brand has built a strong connection to Gran Canaria’s economic and social development. SPAR Gran Canaria seeks to continue creating value for the island over the coming decades.

Through this campaign, SPAR Gran Canaria is turning its anniversary into a shared celebration with the people who have supported the company throughout four decades, reaffirming its commitment to convenience, support for local products and the development of the island’s economy.

The brand became the first voluntary trading chain to be established in Spain when SPAR Spain was granted a licence to trade under the brand by SPAR International. Together, 13 regional SPAR wholesalers actively continue to build the brand’s presence across the mainland and the islands.
