A meeting was held with the operators at the MCCI on Friday 12 May 2023 to finalise the implementation of the Voucher Scheme.

The operators were introduced to the Mobile Application “MCCI Shop”.

The MCCI Team sensitised operators on the use of the MCCI Shop Mobile App.

Together with in-depth explanations on the way the application works, all the steps covering the process of downloading the application from either App Store, Google play or Huawei App Gallery, logging in and registering on the platform, were covered.

The operators enrolled on the Voucher Scheme can be identified by the "redeem here" stickers and product tags.

Furthermore, a "vitrine" has been designed for the operators’ products on the MCCI Tax Refund website. 

Attendees were briefed on the numerous advantages they will benefit from by registering on the MCCI Shop Mobile Application, amongst which,  exceptional visibility, geo-localisation and to be part of marketing initiatives by the MCCI. 

Registered operators were appreciative of the sensitisation initiative by the Chamber and showed their enthusiasm for the future use of the MCCI Shop App to redeem the Tourist eVoucher.

Of note, the MCCI has been continuously reinstating its marketing efforts to build awareness and recognition of the Voucher Scheme.

The objective of the Voucher Scheme is to promote locally manufactured products.

Each tourist is entitled to one eVoucher worth MUR 200 upon the purchase of locally manufactured products for a minimum of MUR 1,000.

In this vein, SMEs and handicraft operators are encouraged to join the Voucher Scheme.

Additional details on the Voucher Scheme are available here.

Interested operators are invited to register their interest by mail on voucherscheme@mcci.org or call on +230 5449 3300 for registration.
