‘A healthy mental in a healthy body’ is the motto of Anatolie Rusu, managing the fitness club “Premier” in the city of Durlești, Chișinău City. She started its business in 2018 with money earned by him and his family abroad.
The fitness centre has more than 2000 square metres and has become one of the most popular in the municipality six years after its openness. Today, more than 1500 people come together here.
Passed by the promotion of sport and a healthy way of living, Anatolie Rusu now decided to expand its business and started the construction of a football school in the city of Durlești.
It is a unique project in the Republic of Moldova, which amounts to more than 40 million lei. In order to top up their investment, the Romanian business took a advantageous loan of lei 15 million under Government Programme 373.
Anatolie Cojocari, the entrepreneur’s business partner, stressed: “THE 373 PROGRAMME IS CRUCIAL FOR ENTREPRENEURS AS IT SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES THE FINANCIAL PRESSURE ON INVESTMENT BY OFFERING CREDIT AT FAVOURABLE RATES. THIS SUPPORT GIVES US CONFIDENCE THAT THE PROJECT WILL BE COMPLETED ON TIME.”
And the founder of the company, Anatolie Rusu, added:
“WE HAVE BENEFITED DIRECTLY FROM THE STATE SUPPORT MECHANISMS. THE GOVERNMENT PROGRAMME 373 ALLOWED ME TO OBTAIN THE NECESSARY FUNDS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF MY COMPANY. IN THE FUTURE, THESE INVESTMENTS WILL CONTRIBUTE TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NATIONAL ECONOMY.”
The football in the city of Durlești is completed 75 percent and will be inaugurated in spring this year. The institution will be able to host almost 400 children, giving them the best conditions to practice football to high standards.
ΡSo far, around 560 entrepreneurs have accessed advantageous credits through government programme 373. The total value of loans for business development amounts to almost lei 2.3 billion, while investment in the domestic economy amounts to approximately lei 3.4 billion.
