Get to Know the Market
A little background
he origins of the Santa Cruz de Tenerife Gastro Market date back to the late 19th century, when farmers and artisans from the region would come to the town of Santa Cruz de Tenerife to trade and sell their products. As in so many other towns in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, street vending emerged in tandem with the agricultural calendar and livestock fairs, establishing itself over the generations as one of the town’s most important social and economic gatherings.
With the arrival of the 20th century and the economic transformation of rural areas, the daily market in Santa Cruz de Tenerife evolved: it gave way to large textile and footwear stalls, incorporated vendors from other provinces, and became professionalized under municipal regulations. Many of today’s vendors are third- or fourth-generation members of families who have been attending this market for decades, maintaining a direct connection to the city’s commercial fabric.
Today, the Santa Cruz de Tenerife Gastro Market maintains that popular essence while adapting to new trends: organic products, contemporary crafts, local cuisine, and a close relationship with consumers that large shopping centers cannot offer. The city government and the vendors’ association collaborate to preserve its traditional character in the heart of Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
