Unión Comercio was founded on June 15 1994 by merchants of the Central Market of Nueva Cajamarca, and participated in local tournaments in Tarapoto until 2010 where they played in the Copa Perú.

In 2003, the club were provincial champion of San Martín and qualified for the Departmental Stage of the Copa Perú, where it was eliminated in the semi-finals by Deportivo Pesquero de Moyobamba in a penalty shootout.

Unión Comercio were champions of the Liga Provincial de Rioja in 2009 and again in 2010. They were also 2010 Liga Departamental champions, where they defeated Atlético Belén and Liga Distrital de Nueva Cajamarca champions and were promoted to the Copa Peru.

In the 2010 Copa Perú, the club qualified to the National Stage when they defeated Cultural Volante, Juventud Santa Rosa and Carlos A. Mannucci in the Region II's group A. Unión Comercio was the 2010 Copa Perú Champion when they defeated Alianza Unicachi in the final.[2] As a result, the team was promoted to the Peruvian First Division for the first time in the club's history.[3]

In its first season in the First Division of Peru, Unión Comercio was placed in sixth place achieving qualification to the Copa Sudamericana for the first time

In 2014 the campaign improved by placing fourth in the tournament, which was its best participation in the first division, achieving another qualification to the Copa Sudamericana. In 2015, they finished eighth and were eliminated again in the first round against Águilas Doradas (2-0 in the first leg and a 1-1 draw in the second leg).
