SPAR Gran Canaria consolidates its position as one of the biggest allies of Gran Canaria sport

 

From its inception, SPAR Gran Canaria has positioned itself as a strategic ally of local sport, with its continued support for professional clubs that goes beyond mere sponsorship, becoming part of the identity of the entire island.

 

 

The supermarket chain has maintained its support for the Islas Canarias SPAR Gran Canaria Women's Basketball Club since the 2014-2015 season, in its continuous promotion as a tool for social transformation and an example of equal opportunities for new generations of players, with the aim of projecting them to the elite of international basketball.

 

The chain recently renewed its support for the CF Femarguín SPAR Gran Canaria women's football team, as part of its active policy of supporting women's sports. With this agreement, the company reaffirms a partnership that has become a benchmark for promoting talent among young women in the Canary Islands.

 

 

In addition, the company has provided uninterrupted support for the SPAR Guerra del Río Latin sailboat for twenty-two years, a symbol of a historic alliance that contributes to the promotion and preservation of this traditional nautical discipline.

 

Also, last year support was renewed for the Canarian wrestling club CL Unión Sardina, as a sign of commitment to local and traditional sports and to initiatives that promote healthy lifestyle habits.

 

 

The partnership between SPAR Gran Canaria and UD Las Palmas is a hallmark of Canarian identity, boasting over twenty years of uninterrupted support. This collaboration has remained steadfast for two decades, demonstrating the supermarket chain's unwavering loyalty to the yellow-clad club each season, regardless of their league status.

 

SPAR Gran Canaria's sports sponsorship goes a step further by supporting inclusive initiatives such as the Interisleta Futsal Club and the I+I (Hope + Inclusion) team of CF Panadería Pulido Vega in San Mateo. Both not only promote sports among these groups, but also foster values ​​such as respect, equal opportunities, and genuine inclusion.

 

 

Promotion of healthy habits

 

SPAR Gran Canaria has sponsored the book for the first time. Raising awareness about food waste: Recipe book for making the most of leftoversA cookbook that combines recipes and practical advice aimed at promoting responsible consumption. The publication is the result of work developed in workshops at the Cultural Classroom of Science and Gastronomy of the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, in collaboration with the Las Palmas Food Bank and the GastroFood Hub.

 

In line with the chain's commitment to food as a driver of health, the supermarket chain organized the traditional children's workshops at the latest edition of the Gran Canaria Me Gusta Fair, which introduce the principles of a diet based on fresh products, fruits and vegetables to the youngest children.
