I Like Gran Canaria

The ‘I Like Gran Canaria’ Brand is the core element of a programme for the promotion and commercialization of locally grown products. It is the brainchild of the Cabildo de Gran Canaria, and came about in 2017. It has emerged thanks to a joint effort by the Departments of Industry, Commerce, Crafts and Housing, the Primary Sector and Food Sovereignty, Tourism and Economic Development, Energy and R+D. The project features an original logo which allows consumers to easily identify products produced, made or manufactured on the island of Gran Canaria, and is backed by partners from all stages of the productive process, namely food outlets, producers, restaurants and collaborators who all share our common vision of positioning the local product and elevating it to a proper level of food sovereignty.
