WELCOME
TO THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE OF THE LARNACA DISTRICT DEVELOPMENT AGENCY
“ANETEL”
The
foundation of the Larnaca District Development Agency was an initiative
of the Union of Communities of Larnaca. After having participation
in many E.U. funded projects and following the progress of the
E.U. for many years, the Board of Directors of the Union of Communities
of Larnaca, along with the fervent support of the Municipalities
of the District of Larnaca, decided that the establishment of
a flexible mechanism was necessary. Through this mechanism, the
active participation of the local self-governmental organizations
of the District of Larnaca to the developments of the E.U. would
be possible, especially through their participation to E.U. funded
programmes in order to achieve their goals. This mechanism was
named “Larnaca District Development Agency” (ANETEL).
The
Larnaca District Development Agency was formed, based on the models
of the developmental structures and mechanisms that function in
the E.U. The Agency is governed by the Companies’ (Amendment)
Law - Ch. 113, as a Company of Limited Responsibility and it has
been registered to the Registrar of Companies of the Republic
of Cyprus (Reg. no. HE 142855). The Agency is a non-Profit organization
and has been accredited as a Public Equivalent Body.
The
Agency was established on 16 October 2003. Its shareholders are
the Municipalities of Larnaca, Athienou, Aradippou and Lefkara,
45 out of 48 Community Councils of the district of Larnaca, the
Chamber of Industry and Commerce of the District of Larnaca, the
Ladies’ Association of Rural Larnaca, the Co-op Banks of Skarinou,
Psematismenos and Tochni, the Union of Communities of Larnaca
and KENTHEA.
The
authorized share capital of the Agency is €170.860.
On
31 August 2006, the Larnaca District Development Agency was honoured
by the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Tourism with the 1st
Enterprises’ Award and represented Cyprus in the contest “European
Enterprise Awards” of the European Union. The agency competed
with around 400 organizations from all over Europe in its category
