The supermarket chain HiperDino has announced its participation in the events organized for the official visit of Pope Leo XIV to Gran Canaria and Tenerife, taking place on June 11 and 12. The company will adapt several of its stores to meet the needs of pilgrims and attendees at these historic events for the Archipelago.
Specific stores such as HiperDino 7 Palmas and HiperDino Triana in Gran Canaria, along with establishments in La Laguna and Santa Cruz de Tenerife, will feature a special assortment of food and products intended for participants in the religious ceremonies.
Additionally, a food truck will be set up in the area designated by the Diocese at the annex of the Gran Canaria Stadium, one of the central points of the papal visit. Carlos García, Marketing and Communication Director for HiperDino in the Canary Islands and the Balearic Islands, highlighted the significance of this event for the islands and the company's commitment to relevant happenings.
“"This is a historic event for the Archipelago, which we could not remain indifferent to. At HiperDino, we are always attentive to cultural, social, and significant events taking place in the Canary Islands, adapting our stores and services to each occasion. And this papal visit, due to its historical importance, could be no less."
HiperDino will also be present at the event at the Gran Canaria Stadium on Thursday starting at 6:30 PM and at the meeting on Friday, June 12, at the Port of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. As a collaborating company with the Diocese, the chain will offer free water and a commemorative gift to all attendees.
“"We want to contribute our small part to both central events, accompanying pilgrims and the general public on a day that will remain in the memory of the Canary Islands."
To facilitate organization and ensure the efficiency of the home delivery service during these days, HiperDino has advised its customers to place orders in advance.
Carlos García also emphasized the work of the Dioceses of the Canary Islands and Nivariense, particularly with vulnerable individuals, and highlighted the company's support for these ecclesiastical institutions in managing the large-scale events.
