The fair gives producers a significant financial boost. Local businesses, such as Vélez-Málaga confectioners Ramos and the Zalea-based Aragón butchers, emphasised how vital the fair is for small producers, helping them reach more customers.

The Sabor a Málaga fair offers a unique opportunity for visitors to discover products not available in large supermarkets, such as a new banoffee liqueur from Mesura in Mijas.
