The initiative combined competitions, discounts, interest-free installments and financing options and was coordinated between the Chamber of Commerce, the Provincial Government, the Municipality of Córdoba, the Córdoba Lottery and Bancor.

“The result is the result of great effort and joint work between the public and private sectors. Positive figures were achieved and business activity strengthened at an important time,” he said. Sebastian ParraPresident of the Cordoba Chamber of Commerce.
