Presentation of La Rosa
On Monday the 27th, Sant Feliu City Council presented La Rosa, a pioneering economic innovation in the city. The presentation took place in Plaça de la Vila, with the participation of local businesses, the mayor Oriol Bossa, the first deputy mayor Lidia Muñoz and the councilor for Commerce and Tourism Aitor Ribera. La Rosa, Sant Feliu’s first local currency, aims to boost local commerce, support social services and subsidize aid for the city.
Impact and Operation
According to the mayor, La Rosa seeks to promote local trade and promote social responsibility, citizen relations and economic activity in Sant Feliu. The first lieutenant of the mayor, Lidia Muñoz, emphasizes that the local currency will contribute to customer loyalty through discounts and other advantages. To make it easier to use, the City Council has developed an application that allows you to exchange euros for roses and make secure payments at local shops.
Bonus campaign
In addition, a bonus campaign of 30% additional Roses has been announced until June 30, with a maximum bonus of 30 Roses per person, thanks to an injection of 20,000 euros from the City Council for economic revitalization.
Support and Citizen Participation
During the presentation, an information point was set up in Plaça de la Vila to resolve doubts and inform citizens interested in joining this new economic system. In addition, more than 80 shops in Sant Feliu already accept La Rosa as official currency, offering a wide range of products and services.
Future of La Rosa
La Rosa’s initiative arose as a response to the Covid-19 crisis, with the aim of reactivating the local economy. The name of the coin was chosen by popular vote in 2022, and the final logo was the result of public participation. The City Council emphasizes that La Rosa is an opportunity to build loyalty and support local commerce, with the intention of consolidating it as an integral part of Sant Feliu’s future.
