Almería city centre celebrates the tenth edition of I Love Chollo on Saturday

Almería city centre hosts a new edition of I Love Chollo Almería on Saturday, November 14, a day of outdoor shopping with around 25 establishments spread across 24 tents along Paseo de Almería and the streets Méndez Núñez and Reyes Católicos. The hours will be from 9.00 to 20.30. Visitors will find products at special prices and promotions throughout the day. The programme includes children's activities by Bóbole from 11.00 and a concert by the group Generación Beta at 20.00. On calle Reyes Católicos two vehicles from the brand GWM will be on display.

Asalsido-Down Almería takes part in the day with Escaparate21, a commercial project that seeks training, job inclusion and visibility for the talent of people with Down syndrome and intellectual disabilities. According to the organisation, it is the first online shop in Spain managed by people with Down syndrome and intellectual disabilities. At its stall it will offer new and good-condition second-hand clothing at affordable prices, as well as handmade products as a gift alternative for the coming Christmas dates. «For Asalsido it is very important that we are considered one more shop and to be able to give visibility to the work and talent of people with disabilities,» explained Maribel Sáez, director of the Centro Especial de Empleo de Asalsido-Down Almería. This event reaches its tenth edition in five years of history, with two calls per year. The councillor for Commerce, Employment and Talent Promotion, Ana Trigueros, has encouraged the people of Almería to go out and take advantage of the opportunities of the participating establishments, as indicated by the Ayuntamiento. The day requires no registration: it is enough to go to the tents within the scheduled hours.
