Most Indians originally travelled to Spain from Africa, while others came from India and even Japan and Southeast Asia. Sindhi traders and shopkeepers thrived in the freeports of the Spanish Canary Islands of Gran Canaria and Tenerife following the imposition of import and foreign exchange restrictions in Spain after World War-II. They conducted a brisk trade with the North African continent from Las Palmas. When Ceuta and Melilla, parts of Spanish Morocco,were also declared as free ports, Indian businessmen set up trading houses and retail shop scatering to the tourist trade [1]
