Between the end of the 1950s and the beginning of the 1960s, the city of Mar del Plata was in one of its most notable periods of expansion thanks to two activities that complemented each other and gave each other a boost: tourism and the tourism industry. the construction. In the 1950s and 1960s, construction was favored by mass tourism and the horizontal property law. Along with fishing, it became the most important activity in the local economy and reached levels that were not surpassed nationally until 1977. Tourism also drove the growth of the textile and food industries. In the same way, both commerce and the food industry received a strong boost from quantitative tourism, transforming some companies into symbols of the city: Los Gallegos Store, Havanna Confectionery, This economic growth was accompanied by the development of a strong business activity that was concentrated in the Union of Commerce, Industry and Production (UCIP), an entity that did not set its actions solely at the sectoral level and that joined the requests of the community in pursuit of improving the educational level of the region and through the creation of a Public University to obtain an accurate diagnosis of the economic and social changes that the city had to face in the medium and long term.
