To date, Mercasa has promoted and manages, together with the respective town halls, a Network of Mercas that has 23 food units distributed throughout the national geography.

Two of them are in the province of Cádiz (Algeciras and Jerez de la Frontera), a fact that would be repeated in the CARM, since the one existing in Murcia would add the one that would have as reference to the Field of Cartagena in the Industrial Polygon of The Camachos.

MC appreciates the positive effects of the installation of this economic activity in the Los Camachos Industrial Estate, a location that should also accommodate the necessary Logistic Storage Zone, the regional ZAL.

The Cartagenerista formation values ​​that the installation of 'MercaCampodeCartagena' in the Los Camachos Industrial Estate, in connection with the ZAL and the proximity of the port of Cartagena, would cause the emergence of synergies and key opportunities for the future of the Region.

All this would provide Cartagena with the necessary tools to make it the reference logistics area of ​​the Spanish Levante, giving the necessary growth opportunities to a municipality and region that are undoubtedly the industrial engines of the Region, who would benefit from the Generation of economic activity and employment that entails an infrastructure of this draft.
