The launch was attended by the Secretary of Government Luciano Dell´Olio, the vice president and delegate of the Center of Commerce, Industry and Services of Concordia before CAME, Jorge Eduardo Villalta, and the president of the centennial Concordia institution, Eng. Adrián Lampazzi, along with representatives of commercial establishments,
Following the screening of one of the campaign's promotional spots, Jorge Eduardo Villalta, on behalf of the host entity, addressed those present, providing a brief overview of the participation conditions for the "buy local" promotional action, which will run through January 6, 2026, inclusive.
After commenting on the positive expectations surrounding this new edition and thanking the Municipality for its commitment, Villalta expressed that the initiative aims to incentivize consumption in formal establishments that pay municipal tax in Concordia, stimulate the local economy, and counteract both informality and purchases made through foreign platforms and applications.
For his part, Adrián Lampazzi highlighted that this fifth edition once again has the support of the Argentine Confederation of Medium-Sized Enterprises (CAME), the Economic Federation of Entre Ríos (FEDER), and the support of the Municipality of Concordia. In this regard, he emphasized that the initiative has managed to transcend municipal administrations, as since it began, at a time when the pandemic was beginning to be left behind, this tool aimed at stimulating "buy local" has been backed by the Municipality.
Regarding the most salient points of the action, Lampazzi recalled that the promotion offers twelve packages (trips and stays) to tourist destinations purchased at local travel agencies and hundreds of thousands of pesos in gifts courtesy of the participating businesses. He added that six of the trips will be raffled on December 26 (“Christmas Raffle”), while the remaining six will be raffled on January 7 (“Three Kings Raffle”), along with the gifts provided by the participating businesses.
Furthermore, as in previous editions, the establishments where the winning coupons for the trips (major prizes) were completed will be awarded financial contributions within the framework of the “Municipality of Concordia” prizes aimed at local commerce.
PUBLIC-PRIVATE COOPERATION AND ARTICULATION
For his part, Dell´Olio praised the role of intermediate institutions and highlighted the importance of working together, valuing public-private articulation for the achievement of objectives for the Concordia we deserve.
Likewise, he emphasized that initiatives of this type that "strengthen the private sector as a generator of employment and contribute to mobilizing the local economy" will always have the support of the municipal administration.
Dell´Olio also highlighted that the renewal of support for this "buy local" campaign by the administration is not an isolated event, but rather occurs within a framework of policies and measures that aim to favor the business climate in Concordia and contribute to the development of productive sectors.
A PROMOTION THAT IS HERE TO STAY
The “Christmas & Three Kings” promotion has consolidated itself as an action to help rescue the Three Kings holiday and a contribution that seeks to strengthen formal commerce. The CCISC hopes that this new edition will be useful to continue promoting conscious consumption that prioritizes and benefits Concordia families.
