This is the case in Orrios, a small municipality in the province of Teruel that is looking for someone interested in starting a business in a rural area and taking charge of its Rural Multi-Service establishment. The business combines a bar-cafeteria service with a small shop, two essential services for residents’ daily lives. In addition, the initiative offers an added incentive: the possibility of accessing municipal housing to make it easier to settle in the town.
A BAR AND SHOP TO KEEP ORRIOS ALIVE
Rural Multi-Service establishments play a key role in many Aragonese municipalities, especially those with small populations. These spaces bring different activities together under one roof and ensure that residents can continue to enjoy basic services without having to travel to other towns. In Orrios, the business combines a bar-cafeteria with a small shop, meaning that the person who takes over its management will be able to carry out both activities.
Beyond their commercial role, these establishments also have an important social dimension. In small villages, the bar often becomes one of the main meeting places, while the shop provides access to everyday products. For this reason, finding someone to keep the Rural Multi-Service establishment open also means preserving the municipality’s activity and social life, as well as promoting new opportunities for entrepreneurship.
HOW TO APPLY TO MANAGE THE RURAL MULTI-SERVICE ESTABLISHMENT
People interested in taking charge of this establishment may submit their applications until October 28, 2026. The offer is aimed at those who want to start a business and develop their professional activity in a rural area, with the opportunity to manage a business that provides different services to local residents.
To find out all the requirements and conditions of this opportunity, interested parties can consult the Rural Multi-Services (MSR) website, under the “Available MSR” section. In addition to managing the business, the offer includes the possibility of accessing municipal housing, a measure intended to facilitate the arrival of new entrepreneurs and help keep this small town in Teruel alive.
