6 HIJO DE FAUSTO ORIA. COLONIAL GOODS AND GROCERIES

The business to which this sixth installment of the Museum of Commerce Notebooks is dedicated is still remembered by several generations of residents of Salamanca, as it remained open until the eighties of the last century in the central Poeta Iglesias square. Throughout all the time it was active, Oria's colonial and grocery store was synonymous with quality and good taste. May this «notebook» be a well-deserved tribute to don Alejo, don Fausto, their family, and descendants. Ana Oria, great-granddaughter of the business founder, writes with a delicate pen the history of the store and her family. A beautiful text that weaves together her memories and is, at the same time, a sentimental walk through a Salamanca in the process of disappearing. The Notebooks are sold for 2.5 euros at the Tourism store in Plaza Mayor, and the Museum of Commerce itself.
