This November, Consell presents series of workshops to boost local trade

As part of this year's Strengthening Local Business Plan (Pla per a l'enfortiment del comerç, PEC), the Formentera Office of Commerce will deliver a boost to local business in a series of workshops this November. Ana Juan, president and councillor of commerce, said the aim of the workshops is "to give Formentera merchants new tools and ideas to enhance their skills".

Focalizza, a consultancy specialised in business development, will develop the PEC and lead the online workshops. The first, Digital competencies and skills for managing a point of sale, will take place 7 and 9 November. Marketing strategies for managing a point of sale will be staged 14 and 16 November, with the third and final workshop, Ten ways to build customer loyalty locally, scheduled 21 and 23 November.

All workshops will be held online from 2.00pm to 4.00pm. For more information and to register, send an email to mercats@conselldeformentera.cat or telephone 971 321 275 ext. 2.

The strategic lines of Formentera's PEC include fomenting business planning; enhancing the competitivity of island businesses; preserving a locally-driven model, and promoting and regulating the local commercial landscape. President Juan recalled that the PEC's preparation and development "reflects the suggestions and concerns of the island's business community".
