Typical food, fast food, desserts, roasts… the gastronomic showcase of the new edition of Yummy Shop is preparing to captivate the most demanding palates this Saturday June 18 and Sunday June 19 on the esplanade of the Riocentro El Dorado shopping center (via La Aurora).
More of 80 exhibitors are ready to present their delicacies to the public. Families or groups of friends can be part of the gastronomic meeting from 1:00 p.m. on Saturday until midnight and, on Sunday, the fair will open its doors until 10:00 p.m.. The admission is $2 for over 15 years.
The first edition of the Yummy Shop took place in 2017 and, since then, It has been an important window for emerging brands to make themselves known. “The first time it was crazy, I was surprised because even though we were new, we were very well received by the public. We were in four editions since 2018 and It was at the Yummy Shop where we made all our products known, which meant that when we opened our stores, people already knew us. As it is a food-only fair, it allows us to reach our future customers much more”, recalls Ana Cristina Granja, owner of Dipping Cookies.
Locals like Papiarte, Fred’s Ice Cream and Floyds are also among the ventures that managed to prosper after being part of this fair. “ANDWe started in 2019 with this idea of European-style potato cones and we decided that we wanted to project our initiative in a big way. That is how we met Yummy Shop and decided to be a part of it, since it is one of the best options in Guayaquil to present our product to the people of Guayaquil. This served to perfect the product, evaluate it and receive comments from the public during these four editions”, says Andrea Valero, owner of Papiarte.
This 2022, the fair has incorporated 70% of new exhibitors joining for the first time to this meeting.
Thus, attendees will be able to choose between trying typical ecuadorian food (different types of dry, humitas, dishes with green), fast food (hamburgers, pizzas, various sandwiches, hot dogs), either desserts (ice cream in different presentations, cookies, cakes, chocolates). There will also be an offer of Asian and Mexican food.
The 2021 editioncarried out after the quarantine due to the COVID-19 pandemic, more than 15 thousand people attended who could know and try the products on display.
