The consumption vouchers in Santa Cruz, Tenerife, will be redeemable until 2 November. Launched on 2 August, the initiative has injected more than €369,000 into the local commercial sector.
José Manuel Bermúdez, the mayor of Santa Cruz, urged residents to take advantage of the final days of the campaign to make purchases at participating shops. He noted that it is mandatory to present identification when redeeming the vouchers, at which point recipients will receive an email detailing their available balance.
Carmen Pérez, the first deputy mayor and managing director of the Development Society, reported that 92.41% of the total available amount has already been redeemed. She highlighted that the spending limits for each participating business are updated regularly on the website www.bonoconsumosantacruz.com for public consultation.
By district, the Suroeste area has recorded the highest redemption rate at 96.07%, followed closely by Ofra-Costa Sur at 95.87%. The Centro-Ifara district has reached a redemption rate of 92.08%, while Salud-La Salle stands at 91.31%.

This sixth edition of the Santa Cruz consumption vouchers has seen participation from 275 commercial establishments, many of which are still accepting vouchers.
On 25 October, the final Sunday of the consumption voucher initiative took place, resulting in an economic boost of over €30,000 in the tourist zone, with a redemption rate of 99.16% of the amount sold.
