Fran Y Chemi - Poligono Industrial El Matorral
#1
I also recommend Fran Y Chemi.  Their produce is very fresh and their salad stuff, lettuce etc.seems to remain fresher for longer than the supermarket stuff. Prices always very reasonable and have a great selection of herbs and spices.

I go along with Emmi's comments about herbs and spices - you can buy decent size bags/containers of them here as well as some other products in catering sizes.

We also support comments about shopping at Fran Y Chemi a great selection of fresh fruit and veg as well as plenty of other catering food items.  One item price that sticks in my mind is loose mushrooms 3.35€ a kilo vs 6.30€ prepped in plastic in Spar or Mercadona

We've shopped here many times, but I hate to disagree with this post - I've generally found the food goes off quicker. Incidentally, one day we saw one of the checkout girls checking the prices in Mercadona.

We used to buy all our F/Veg there at one time, but now we go there very occasionally for the same reason as TF, it  deteriorates faster unless you are very selective, we now go to F/Veg shop near 5 Oceans,and as I have said before not the cheapest but of a much better quality.

As it's about a fifth of the size of Frani Y Chem, that is to be expected, but we will always take quality before breadth of selection, we have been using it for about a month and have never failed to get, anything we needed, called into Frani Y Chem last Saturday, as it is the only place we can buy Cauliflower that has not had all the green removed, and I must admit it did not look too bad, except for a display  Sweetcorn, that was starting to  rot, and a lot of bulk sacks of carrots amongst their salad display, but better than empty shelves I suppose.
