Small businesses are being encouraged to apply for a State Government grant of up to $15,000 to help boost turnover, increase their workforce or improve resilience.
Small Business Minister Di Farmer said information about the next round of Business Boost grants was now available.
“Previous recipients of the grant have used the funds to do a range of business boosting projects such as introducing an online booking system, redeveloping websites, building a tailor-made workplace health and safety system and staff training,” Minister Farmer said.
To be eligible, small businesses must employ less than 20 employees and have had a turnover between $300,000 and $600,000 during the past financial year.
Businesses will need to co-contribute at least 30 per cent of the total cost of their proposed project with grant funding paid to successful small businesses following completion of the project.
To manage applications, a new two-stage process has been introduced.
Businesses must register their interest to apply by completing an online form.
Registrations will be open from 9:00am on August 12 and will close at midnight on August 19.
Businesses will then be selected by ballot and invited to complete a full application.
