Service month for “15-minute convenient living circle” launched

The service month activity for the “15-minute Convenient Living Circle” in Ningbo was launched at the Tongxin Lake Community of Zhuangshi Sub-district, Zhenhai District, on August 6. Zhang Suying, a resident over 60 years old, said, “It’s so convenient! There’s a shopping mall right at our doorstep, where you can take a walk to the nearby fair for haircuts, beauty salons, learn floral and tea art, and participate in the trade-in of old household appliances for new ones.”

From August 6 to September 11, all districts (or counties), including Zhenhai District, will mobilize businesses, communities, property management and social groups or organizations to provide various convenient services related to people’s daily life, so as to enrich the content of the “15-minute convenient living circle” services. To be specific, there will be such convenient commercial activities as the common prosperity fairs, food festival activities, and the trade-in of old appliances for new ones at communities, such public welfare

activities as free clinics, elderly care consultation, and tool maintenance, as well as such interactive activities as bookstores at communities, dance training, and psychological counseling.

Since being selected as one of the first national pilot cities for the “15-minute convenient living circle”, Ningbo has built 62 15-minute convenient living circles, achieving full coverage of districts (or counties), with over 200 chain convenience stores, over 60 comprehensive supermarkets, and about 6,500 other stores.

In a 15 minute convenient living circle, there will not only be such basic industries as shopping, catering, housekeeping, express delivery, and maintenance services, but also such life improvement industries as culture, entertainment, leisure, socializing, health and fitness, which will lead to a more convenient consumption environment and a higher sense of happiness for residents
