For the past two years, Eskilstuna municipality has not demanded entrepreneurs for fees for land lease. This is to support the local business community, which has been hit hard by the corona pandemic. The municipality wants to continue with this also this year, despite the restrictions having been released. Market trader Adil Drioich will be one of those who will not have to pay the rent if the proposal goes through.
Adil Drioich has been selling flowers on the square in Eskilstuna for almost ten years.
In recent years, his company has lost 60 percent of its normal sales as a result of the corona pandemic.
Hear Adil Drioich talk about what the support package means to him in the clip above.
