Eligible trader groups and business chambers are encouraged to apply for the third round of grants under the Business Chambers and Trader Groups program.

Up to 60 eligible business chambers and trader groups can access grants of $20,000 as part of the $1.2 million dollar fund, with the funding to be used to help businesses adapt, innovate and rebuild.

Small Business Minister Jaala Pulford said Wyndham business organisations including those supporting multicultural and Aboriginal businesses are encouraged to apply.

“We’re backing business chambers and trader groups to bring small businesses together and support them to thrive in their community,” she said.

“By investing in small businesses, we’re backing them to succeed – and that growth fuels the economy.”

Applications are open until Sunday, August 28.
