• The agreement aims to harness synergies with installation companies to raise awareness among residents and homeowner associations of the commercial offer from the distribution company.

Earlier today, the Director of Gas Natural Rioja, Miquel Andreu, and the Chairman of Afoncagás (the Association of Plumbing, Gas, Central Heating, Maintenance and Industrial Cooling Companies and Related Businesses in La Rioja), Jesús Alonso, signed an agreement to harness synergies with AFONCAGÁS members to promote the installation of natural gas in more homes, residential blocks and commercial establishments in La Rioja.

Under this agreement, Gas Natural Rioja seeks to increase the number of new supply points in homes connected to its distribution network, thereby strengthening the presence of natural gas in the region and promoting activity by installation companies, which will be able to benefit from significant advantages when collaborating with the company.

Gas Natural Rioja is finalising the terms of the nation-wide public tender for installation companies and professionals with AFONCAGÁS and is offering its members a number of additional advantages: new mobility tools in sales campaigns that allow information on the potential market to be collected and enable the result from a sales visit to be reported instantly, as well as assistance in processing the contracts digitally.

On 13 January, Gas Natural Rioja presented its public tender for installation companies. It will soon hold a work session for members of Afoncagás to explain the agreement, explain the advantages of natural gas over other fuels and foster its use through tax credits linked to certain commercial targets in the SME, residential block, occupied property and large-scale consumer sectors.
