- The Cannes Lérins agglomeration community has had a marketplace developed to defend businesses in the Cannes basin.
- The platform was put online in advance to deal with the coronavirus crisis.
It was not to arrive so early. But the crisis of the new coronavirus precipitated its launch. Shoppeer, a “marketplace” intended to promote the businesses of Cannes and its living area, has just been urgently developed and put online to allow “the revival of the local economy” with a view to deconfinement.
The idea is to offer "a catalog of traders and local artisans" who "must, even more today, have relevant tools of our time", facing online commerce, according to the mayor LR of Cannes David Lisnard . The platform, initiated by the Cannes Lérins urban community that he chairs and designed by a start-up based in the city of festivals, will quickly evolve into a mobile application.
A smartphone app in June
"This first version, accessible on the Web, lists the offers of merchants," explains Grégory Biondo, managing director of Blue beacon. A second, published within ten days, will offer the possibility of buying vouchers to generate liquidity among traders who need them at the moment and who cannot yet deliver. Version 3 will be the smartphone app that will allow you to place orders directly ”, starting in June.
🔴 The 3 objectives of the #Marketplace:

This change will not pay (a monthly subscription ranging from 30 to 50 euros) after six months for traders. It will offer users to activate a feature offering promotions nearby using Bluetooth technology.
"Assumed incentive to consume locally"
"We also want to quickly offer vouchers that can be used in restaurants for their survival while waiting for their reopening," says David Lisnard. In addition to the food trades, businesses linked to health, fashion and culture are listed. Fifteen categories in total are highlighted on the marketplace. When it was launched, 350 businesses (out of 4,366 in the town of Cannes alone) were listed, 119 of which had already put an offer online.

"The purpose is to safeguard our economy and know-how by an assumed incentive to consume local during and after confinement", supports the mayor of Cannes.
