La Corredoría: Economy and Key Industries

La Corredoría benefits from a growing and diversified economy, with key industries including services, commerce, and light manufacturing. The proximity to Oviedo, which serves as a governmental and educational hub for Asturias, also means that the public sector and education play important roles in the local economy. Many residents commute to Oviedo for work, but La Corredoría itself has developed a strong local economy that includes retail, hospitality, and small businesses.

Tourism is also a growing sector in La Corredoría, particularly as the city becomes better known for its strategic location in Asturias, offering access to both urban amenities and natural attractions. The area’s strong agricultural tradition is reflected in the local markets, where fresh produce and dairy products, such as the famous Asturian cheese, are popular.

Unique local crafts and artisanal products, including Asturian cider (sidra) and hand-crafted goods, are also key elements of the local economy. La Corredoría offers visitors a taste of these traditional industries while still providing all the conveniences of a modern city.
