Benidorm is studying solutions to eradicate the activity of the 'street vendors'

Benidorm estudia soluciones para erradicar la actividad de los ‘manteros’

It is known as 'street vendors' who tries to capture street tourists in order to sell illegal trips and excursions. The department of Public Security wants to establish controls on companies that do this practice and for this it has been requested the cooperation of all sectors involved. In today's meeting it has been proposed inspections on buses that move tourists and find out who is really behind the 'street vendor', so that the local police can "try to eradicate this behavior "said the councillor for Public Security Lorenzo Martínez.

Martínez made clear the commitment of the local government team to eliminate illegal trips. The council was pleased with the collaboration of trade associations and travel agencies and has proposed that Hosbec, the Hotel Business Association of Benidorm is also incorporated. "We will try in the coming days a meeting with the hospitality employers because many of these companies capture their 'clients' at the fords of hotels."
