Alcala-Alcossebre businesses will shortly have a new technological tool in order to become more competitive and bring them closer to their potential customers. It is a new application “Activa Alcala-Alcossebre” through which, using mobile appliances, you will be able to check out a directory of local businesses and other different information of interest. The App, which can be downloaded to mobiles and tablets, includes various sections: businesses, events, tourist guide, notices and employment. “Our aim is for all this to be downloaded so that it can be used quickly to find the businesses in each sector and information which could be of interest such as addresses, telephone numbers and discount campaigns and offers” Business councillor, Alejandra Roca, explained, and stated that “we are aware of how complicated it is for our local businesses to compete with big areas and with businesses in other municipalities and therefore we think that it is important to give the maximum information and make ourselves more visible”.
The launch of this new App is one of the different actions of the Business Promotion Plan introduced by the Business Department during 2018 with the technical support of the Castellón Chamber of Commerce. The main aims covered by this plan include adding value to the commercial, gastronomic, cultural and leisure resources in the municipality, modernising the sector, winning a greater share of the market and generating employment. During the year, there have been various talks and workshops with local businesses aiming to motivate them and involve them in this, improving their resources to increase competitiveness. The Council also evaluates very positively the good results from the Christmas Fair, in which a great number of local businesses took part.
