Ghost shops

In its edition of November 11th, 2018, the local newspaper "EL PUNT AVUI" publishes an article in which Juan Ribas refers to Girona’s closing stores as "ghost shops". He mentions that the City Council is acquiring many premises in the city to turn them into local government buildings, such as the old "Hotel del Centre" which is nowadays the City Council of Girona. Other examples are the "Cafè d'en Vila", "Perfumeria Torrelles" and the old "Agència Gómez".

Meanwhile, the big platforms don’t stop growing, as it seems that everything has to be acquired there. Lately, sales are added online, which are gaining ground, because of the ease of buying from a computer.
