Your trusted supermarket in Cómpeta
Life in a white village in the mountains of the Axarquía has its charm, and daily shopping close to home plays a big part in that. Covirán Portales offers exactly that, a complete supermarket within the village, a short drive or walk from the centre of Cómpeta. Residents do their weekly shopping here, holiday guests stock their rental home on the day they arrive, and hikers pick up water and a snack before they head into the sierra.
The shop belongs to the Portales family, who run the supermarket themselves and share their news and weekly offers on Facebook. That personal touch shows in the reviews on Google, where guests describe the staff as very friendly and always ready to help, and where the shelves come across as neatly stocked and clean.
Four departments under one roof

Butcher and charcuterie counter
At the counter, customers find fresh meat and cured products such as Spanish ham and sausages. On Google, the meat counter ranks among the topics guests mention most in their reviews, and the shop regularly highlights special offers on Spanish ham.
Fruit and vegetables
The fruit and vegetable section offers a fresh selection every day. Google even lists tasty fruit and vegetables among the highlights of this supermarket, a detail that matters for anyone who cooks with local produce.
Bakery, groceries and drinks
Bread and pastries complete the morning shopping, while the shelves with groceries and drinks hold a wide choice of brands, Spanish wines included. Weekly promotions with a super price on selected products appear in the store leaflet and on the Facebook page of the family.
