The Chania Chamber of Commerce (EVEX) has announced a new business funding program called "We Produce in Greece," aimed at supporting local manufacturers and producers in the Chania region of western Crete. The initiative provides financial assistance to eligible businesses that create or develop products on Greek soil, with the Chamber offering informational sessions on application requirements and who qualifies. For visitors, this program supports the local economy that underpins Crete's artisan food producers, olive oil makers, and craft businesses. Tourists shopping for local products in Chania's markets and shops may benefit indirectly as the scheme helps small producers grow and maintain quality. Those interested in learning more about participating businesses can contact the Chania Chamber of Commerce directly for details on funded producers in the area.
