Embark on an entrepreneurial journey in Garton Town! Manage your own thriving fresh juice shop and master the art of running a micro-business. This game, adapted from the classic Business Games of the German Sparkassenstiftung for International Cooperation (DSIK) and funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), provides a realistic simulation of business ownership.

You’ll handle all aspects, from accounting and resource management to production and employee relations. Face challenges and seize opportunities for growth as you make key decisions about hiring, menu planning, supplier selection, and financial strategies. Sharpen your financial acumen and entrepreneurial skills in a dynamic environment.

Developed over 20 years by DSIK, this game empowers individuals to make sound financial choices, improving their personal and professional lives. It combines over 200 years of German Sparkassen experience with expertise in financial literacy for micro-entrepreneurs.
