Coruñas fishmonger
SINCE 1911 “The best seaport in the capital of Spain” The 1911 press described the opening of the Pescaderías Coruñesas headquarters on Calle Echegaray as the “largest and most important establishment of its kind”; Not in vain, Alfonso XIII was present at its inauguration
...In 1912, the newspaper La Época thanked him for his extraordinary work in providing the town with good, abundant and cheap fish and forcing all the other fishmongers to lower their prices. Luis Lamigueiro, founder of the business, remained in charge of the company for almost twenty years, until 1930, when he sold most of the branches to Luis Fragío, who was already working as manager. In 1956 it was Norberto García, who had been a fishmonger at Pescaderías Coruñesas, who acquired the only branch that was still in operation at that time, the one on Calle Recoletos. He puts his son, Evaristo García Gómez, in charge, who is still in charge of the establishment today, and who maintained Pescaderías Coruñesas as "the best sea port in the capital of Spain", a slogan that the new family generation in the business thinks continue to comply Pescaderías Coruñesas moved in 1986, due to the need to expand its facilities, to what is today its final location: Juan Montalvo street, in the Moncloa district. Pescaderías Coruñesas still maintains itself as a historical and current reference among Madrid fishmongers.
