Collect, win and strengthen the city center from 12 September to 12 October
The district town will also participate in the nationwide "Shop Local" campaign organized by the Chambers of Industry and Commerce in 2025. The goal of the campaign is to strengthen local retail and restaurants, emphasize the importance of local shopping, and safeguard the attractiveness of city centers. Around 30 municipalities in southern Hesse are participating.
"The campaign is a very good initiative to highlight the central importance of local retail and restaurants. Combined with our city voucher 'GG-Scheck' as a chance to win prizes, the campaign also strengthens Groß-Gerau as a shopping destination," emphasize the organizers from the city's economic development agency and trade association.
Collection campaign with vouchers
From September 12th to October 12th, customers will receive stickers when shopping or eating at participating stores, which they can enter on a collection card. Anyone who collects five stickers can exchange the card for a city voucher worth five euros at the reception desk in the town hall. A total of 200 vouchers are available – while supplies last. One person can win directly.
Main raffle and additional promotions
In addition, all submitted trading cards will be entered into a main drawing for city vouchers totaling €500. The drawing is scheduled to begin in calendar week 42.
The eye-catching shopping bags are also part of the campaign again. In 2025, they will bear the slogan "Quite simply: buy local" – a clear signal of support for local businesses.
Support from the mayor
Mayor Jörg Rüddenklau emphasizes: "A vibrant city center is an important factor for the quality of life in Groß-Gerau and the surrounding area. 'Shop Locally' highlights the value of shopping in your own town and supporting local restaurants."
