A Business Improvement District (BID) is a public-private partnership in which a publicly supported, privately managed organization is created to improve
the physical environment and enhance public services and investments in a geographically distinct urban, commercial neighborhood. The primary purpose
of the district is to create improved economic opportunities, security, and a business climate among BID members. Successful BIDs go beyond
addressing just infrastructure repairs and maintenance, they also create a community, increase security, lead to increased business activity and increase property values.
The AADF is implementing Shkodra BID in partnership with the Municipality of Shkodra along November 28th – December 13th – Kol Idromeno Streets. The BID Association and the Municipality collaborate to host events which gather the community and promote the area.
