Shopping
Figueres has been and is a city with a commercial vocation. It was the first city in Girona province to have a pedestrian shopping zone in the city centre. The historical centre, is today a great open-air shopping zone which can offer a notable and varied range of shops selling food, textiles and clothes and household articles.
The city’s thousand shops make up a commercial range which attracts shoppers from Alt Empordà county, the other Girona counties and the south of France. This is high-quality commerce based on convenience and family service, though not excluding more modern and innovative forms of organisation such as franchises. In Figueres you can shop as you stroll and stroll as you shop.
Markets
The weekly open-air markets are the oldest ways of exchanging products and, in the case of fruit and vegetables, permit direct contact between producer and buyer. This type of commerce has lost none of its relevance or charm, and plays a recognised role in social relations. The Figueres clothes market is one of the largest in the Girona counties and attracts many shoppers from the other side of the Pyrenees.
