Opportunity For Businesses

ROCHFORD District Council has launched a business Growth Grant scheme.

 Rochford District Council is offering an exciting opportunity for businesses within the District to access funding that will help them stay competitive in today’s fast-evolving market.

 The Rochford District Business Growth Grant scheme is aimed at helping sole traders, micro and small businesses and community interest companies across the District to innovate, expand, or enhance their visibility.

 Businesses within the District are encouraged to apply for £3,000 in funding to support the purchase of new goods or services, including technology upgrades, marketing efforts, specialist training, or product diversification.

 Applications for the grant scheme will open on 31 January 2025 and close on 14 February 2025, with successful applicants receiving funding in early March 2025.

 Coun Michael Hoy, Chair of the Economic Development, Regeneration and Tourism Committee, said: “We are pleased to launch the Rochford District Business Growth Grant scheme, which underlines our commitment to fostering local enterprise and supporting economic growth.

 “These grants provide an opportunity for businesses to innovate, scale and adapt to ever-changing market demands. By empowering our business community, we aim to create a robust and resilient local economy in 2025 and beyond.”

 This initiative is funded by the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
