An increasing production of sugars and distilled spirits, and a need to place it in the major markets of the country represented one of the main boosts for the development of the railway infrastructure. By 1895, three train lines linked Tucumán with the central region and the ports, one with the north, and another ran through the interior of the province, linking the southern area of Tucumán, between the rich lowlands and the piedmont. The rail network connected, in addition to sugar mills and farms, numerous urban centers located in old trade circuits. As a result, the railway infrastructure not only modified the communications and transport of people, but it also favoured the expansion of trade within the province. Focusing on the distribution in the provincial area, this article analyzes the trade structure developed in Tucumán during a period of economic growth resulted from the sugar boom and the growth of the railway network. We will base our study on statistical data, qualitative information, and the trade data collected in 1895 by the census, a source scarcely used for this purpose. El desarrollo de la industria azucarera en Tucumán (Argentina) en el último cuarto del siglo XIX generó una vertiginosa transformación de la economía provincial. La creciente elaboración de azúcares y aguardientes y la necesidad de colocarla en los mayores mercados del país, representó uno de los principales estímulos para el desarrollo de la infraestructura ferroviaria. En 1895, tres líneas vinculaban a Tucumán con la región central y los puertos, una con el norte, y otra recorría el interior de la provincia, enlazando los departamentos del sur tucumano, entre la llanura central y la zona del piedemonte. Con todo, los rieles conectaron, además de ingenios y fincas agrícolas, a numerosos centros poblacionales, por lo que no solo modificaron las comunicaciones y el transporte de personas sino que favorecieron la expansión del comercio en el interior de la provincia. El artículo analiza la estructura comercial desarrollada en Tucumán asociada al crecimiento económico generado por el auge azucarero y a la red ferroviaria que surcó el interior, con el foco puesto en su magnitud y distribución dentro del espacio provincial. Apoyaremos nuestro estudio en datos estadísticos, información cualitativa y en fuentes escasamente trabajadas, como las cédulas censales de 1895 sobre el sector comercial.
