About fifty of them attended the information meeting organized on July 22 by the tourism club, a new structure which succeeds the hoteliers association and which wishes to unite all tourism professionals.
Hoteliers, restaurateurs, taxi drivers, insurers, managers of nautical activities, many business leaders came to understand the ambitions of the tourism club.
“The tourism product has changed, you have to reinvent yourself and not stick to your achievements. We have to improve our product and for that it appears necessary to share and exchange all together ”, considers a representative of the club.
“That's why I wanted to go to the meeting. I think it is important to exchange information between us, that the tourism sector is represented by several skills. It's good to act all together instead of staying in our own corner, ”says a kayak rental company in Cul de Sac, for whom joining an association is a first.
Same speech from a restaurateur from Baie Nettle. “I've been here for 20 years, I had never joined an association but I want things to move forward,” he considers.
These two new members believe that if all the companies that make a living from tourism come together, they will have “more listening and weight” with politicians. "It is also an opportunity to meet each other, to discover each other's activities, to share our problems", they add.
For the moment, each member is invited to send their grievances and ideas back to the club office, which will be classified by sector of activity and district with a view to drafting a roadmap of actions to be taken and to be suggested to the Collectivity.
The club will operate in four committees: promotion / communication / animation / event; human resources / training / employment; welcoming tourists / regional planning; finances.
