The Galapagar City Council has extended an invitation to the municipality's small businesses to benefit from the Global Diagnostic Program for Small Retail Businesses, an initiative by the Community of Madrid designed to enhance their competitiveness and profitability.

This free and voluntary program provides each participating establishment with a detailed analysis of its current situation and a tailored Commercial Activation Plan, developed with the support of specialized point-of-sale consultants. The goal is to equip local businesses with practical tools to adapt to market demands, foster modernization and innovation, and increase sales and customer satisfaction.
Traders will receive personalized advice through at least two on-site visits. During these sessions, the business's status will be evaluated, and specific recommendations will be defined. The outcome will be a plan agreed upon with the business owner, including short and medium-term initiatives.
The initiative targets retail businesses within the Community of Madrid that are self-employed or micro-enterprises with an annual turnover below 2 million euros and fewer than 10 employees. The Community of Madrid is promoting this program with the participation of 250 businesses, aiming to align Madrid's retail sector with current market needs.
Interested traders seeking more information and wishing to register can contact the Commerce Department of the Galapagar City Council, located at the La Posada building, Plaza de la Constitución, nº 9. The contact phone number is +34 91 858 78 00, extension 6103. The Council encourages small business owners to consider this opportunity for specialized advice and a custom-designed action plan for their business, at no cost.
