For this purpose, there will be a space called “El Mercadito”, where producers and companies will be exhibiting their products to the public, with prices similar to those in the markets.

The fair will be open from 1:00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m., with free admission and access to the public, at the TUK Tulum Hotel, with the call still open for companies or NGOs wishing to register, with the requirement that they have a project on sustainable economy.
Ana Mari Irabién, director of communication and public relations of the CPTQ, announced that the participants will include several companies and producers of Maya Ka’an, and they are already in talks with Amigos de Sian Ka’an to decide which companies from the region will participate in this fair.
Mari Irabién emphasized that this type of event helps to expand the state’s tourism offer, as well as to raise awareness about environmental care and sustainable development, which is why the CPTQ together with the Secretary of Ecology and Environment will be supporting the fair in its promotion.
Finally, he mentioned that they hope this will be the first of many editions, so a possible second edition in the Riviera Maya or Cancun next 2024 is already underway, which will not only attract tourists or expose the projects of the region, but also attract investments in them.
