By Instituto Canario de Estadística, (ISTAC), del Gobierno de Canarias This statistic includes several statistical operations that allow us to know the main
structural and economic characteristics of companies through a wide set of variables
related to employed personnel, turnover and other income, purchases and consumption, expenses of
personnel and investments. The three major economic sectors studied are industry, el
trade and market services, not including public services.
Services sector
The turnover of the market services sector increased by 16,5% respecto al año 2019,
while the employed personnel reached the 400 thousand employees, a 12,6% more than in the year before
the pandemic. for the year 2022, This sector represents for the whole of Spain the 4,1% of the total
of its turnover, and the 4,9% of the total number of employed people in the country. These figures confirm the greater
weight that the services sector has in the Canary Islands economy if we compare it with the total of this
sector in Spain as a whole.
Of the 28 subsectors established by the National Classification of Economic Activities (CNAE)
for whom we publish information, accommodation services stand out, with the 20,5% of the total
of the sector's sales figure, while catering occupies first place in terms of
employment, con 72.500 workers.
Sector industrial
The industrial sector slightly exceeds employment for the year 2019, con un crecimiento del 0,5% para
reach the 39.671 workers. Sales figures perform much better, growing
a 40,6% compared to the pre-pandemic year.
The variables of the industrial sector show two differentiated behaviors depending on the
analyzed subsector. Así, por un lado, The manufacturing industry continues to show signs of
stagnation in employment, since it maintains the same workers as in 2019. and with growth of
sales motivated by rising prices. However, another large industrial sector, el
energetic, gain weight, surpassing the turnover of the manufacturing industry, and grows a 73%
in sales and 14,7% in employment.
The behavior of the sector in the Canary Islands is similar to the national one, although it barely represents the 1,1% de
sales and 1,7% of employment on the islands.
Commerce sector
Unlike the two previous major sectors, The commercial sector in the Canary Islands has not
recovered employment levels 2019, fact that has not occurred in most of the
autonomous communities, except Andalusia and Castilla la Mancha.
The three divisions of this sector are: vehicle sales and repair (14 thousand jobs), trade
wholesale (38 thousand jobs) and retail trade (99 thousand jobs). En 2022, they employed 151.320
people, still far from 159.676 de 2019.
No obstante, turnover has grown by 17,2% about 2019, behavior inferior to
whole country (20,8%), and it is a growth generated, largely, due to the increase in
the prices of traded goods and services.
