A Vote of Confidence in Puerto Morelos' Economy

"From the municipal administration, we encourage the emergence of new businesses by facilitating opportunities for entrepreneurs who contribute to our economic growth," the mayor stated.

A New Dining Concept for the Community
During the event, Mayor Tziu Muñoz toured the spacious restaurant, noting its comfortable seating and fully equipped kitchen, which adheres to safety protocols. Gómez, who also owns the restaurant "La Cabaña," described "Charly Chicken" as a new culinary concept specializing in chicken dishes prepared in various styles to cater to diverse tastes.
The venture is a partnership between Gómez, Rafael Rosales, and Raúl Hernández Gómez. Gómez highlighted that the restaurant will create employment opportunities for local residents, further boosting the area’s economy.
Encouraging Local Consumption
Mayor Tziu Muñoz urged Puerto Morelos residents to prioritize supporting local businesses. She noted that the municipality’s culinary offerings are expanding beyond the tourist zone, with the Joaquín Zetina area now featuring a wide variety of dining options.
"This reflects our economic growth and development, bringing prosperity to more families in Puerto Morelos," she added.
The inauguration of "Charly Chicken" marks another step in the municipality’s efforts to foster entrepreneurship and diversify its dining scene.
