The Trade Office on the rails – it was to open on Place Anne-Grommerch on January 21, but the work was delayed a little – Carole Thil had announced that she was leaving the presidency of the association of traders in Thionville (Apecet), judging that this responsibility was incompatible with her post of assistant to participatory democracy.
On Tuesday, at a press conference, the one who has led Apecet for eight years, newly appointed Knight of the Legion of Honor, reiterated her desire to hand over as soon as possible.

First objective: find a candidate for succession. “Times have changed,” she explains. Before, a business was often run by a couple. One of them could take time for the association while the other was running the store. Today, this is no longer the case. “
Second objective: to confirm his departure during a face-to-face general assembly. No question of drawing a line on eight years of presidency in virtual meeting!
These two objectives will also allow Apecet to review, without haste, its mode of operation. Engaged in the new Office of Commerce, installed under the same roof as the city manager, the Chamber of Commerce and the Chamber of Trades, to facilitate the procedures for project leaders, she will have to set up a new office and provide new missions.
