The complete list of participating businesses includes fashion stores, restaurants and shoe shops: Insieme (clothing – 2,400 euros), Mármara (boutique – 1,880 euros), Tres Peques (children’s clothing – 1,600 euros), Papelería Botella (stationer – 1,240 euros), Restaurante Embruix 1,200 euros), Opticalia Duanes (optometrist – 1,129 euros) and Restaurante Cande (1,120 euros).
Despite the cumbersome process, the town hall has already announced that it is to open a new call for these vouchers to encourage Christmas shopping in Xàbia and contribute to sustaining the local economy. Some of the vouchers will be financed once again by the Diputación de Alicante.
