Sisteron, this charming little town located in the heart of the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, is buzzing with new business initiatives. The summer of 2024 marked the arrival of two pilot stores, Model and La Poissonnerie LĂ©onie, giving a boost to the local economy and adding a touch of diversity to the commercial offering in the town center.
The new businesses in Sisteron
To start, the shop Model, a space dedicated to cosmetics and aesthetics, is run by the dynamic Mrs. Deloustal, who opened its doors at 195 rue Droite. In this sanctuary of beauty and well-being, one can find the latest trends in skincare, makeup, and even beauty tips that would make social media influencers envious.
Not far from there, at 92 rue Droite, is La Poissonnerie LĂ©onie, managed by the friendly Mrs. Raffalli. This store offers a wide selection of seafood products, as fresh as a herring straight out of the water. Seafood and exotic fish lovers will delight in stopping by, their taste buds thrilled! The freshness of the products is already making waves throughout the town.
A privileged launch environment
The concept of test store has been established to provide entrepreneurs with a favorable testing ground for their projects. This innovative scheme allows them to benefit from a reduced rent and a more flexible occupancy framework compared to traditional commercial leases. Entrepreneurs can thus focus on their activity without the pressure of exorbitant rent that could ruin their dream.
However, this advantage is not without conditions! The occupant cannot claim ownership of the business goodwill, and the occupancy is limited to 36 months. This framework encourages entrepreneurs to refine their projects while revitalizing the town center with varied and attractive businesses.
A supportive environment for young entrepreneurs
Sisteron has many assets to promote economic development. When a commercial space becomes vacant, the authorities issue a call for applications, allowing anyone to propose their concept. Candidates are selected by a commission, including elected officials, technicians, and representatives from consultative chambers. Who said starting a business in a town center was just a dream? In Sisteron, it has become a tangible reality!
Sisteron in full swing
With the arrival of these new stores, Sisteron is gaining a bit more life and activity, bringing new energy to the town. These shops complement the existing network of test stores, including the must-see Absolue Lavande, Le Pain de Lore, and other charming businesses. A diversity that makes the residents proud and even attracts curious visitors.
The commercial dynamism seen in Sisteron is not just occasional; it’s a virtuous circle. The new stores bring economic diversity and create jobs, opportunities, and especially a space where residents can gather. Who would have thought that a small town like Sisteron, known for its picturesque landscapes and hiking trails, would become a playground for entrepreneurs?! It is above all a place where one can dream and innovate.
The two new pilot stores opened in Sisteron bring a breath of fresh air to local commerce. With Model and La Poissonnerie Léonie, residents and visitors now have an enriched offering that combines aesthetics and gastronomy. It’s not just about consumption; it’s a true celebration of local know-how and entrepreneurial passion.
These initiatives illustrate how a small town can transform through projects that respond to the needs and desires of consumers. The establishment of pilot stores supports the dynamism of the town center, thus enhancing Sisteron’s attractiveness. In a world where innovation and diversity are the watchwords, these new businesses fit perfectly into this desire to offer something different, something surprising. Sisteron thus shows that it is not just a transit point but a full-fledged destination for all consumption whims! So, are you ready to go discover all of this and support our traders?
