JESÚS RODRÍGUEZ LÓPEZ A CAPTAIN OF SALAMANCAN SECULAR COMMERCE

Jesús Rodríguez López is one of those businesses that, despite having closed its doors many years ago, continues to be in the collective memory of the city.

It was open for almost one hundred years. Located in the heart of Plaza Mayor, it was one of the most famous department stores and perhaps the first business to organize its interior by sections, thus surpassing the old concept of a bazaar.

This issue has been written by Julio Rodríguez Frutos, grandson of the company's founder. It is a summary of the four volumes he himself wrote about the family's trajectory. Available for sale at the Museum of Commerce, the Tourism shop in Plaza Mayor, and some bookstores.
