    On May 20th, 2021, the Town of Grimsby’s Economic Development Advisory Committee (GEDAC), in partnership with the Grimsby Chamber of Commerce, launched the Town’s first Business Retention & Expansion (BR&E) initiative with local businesses.

    From initial responses from the BR&E survey, the project team heard local business concerns about needing access to resources to assist amidst COVID-19.

    In response, a COVID-19 Business Support page, which can be found under the “Let’s Talk Business” tab on the Town’s website, has been launched to connect local businesses with valuable information regarding:

    • Federal, Provincial & Municipal business grants
    • Sourcing Personal Protective Equipment vendors
    • Scheduling training & well-being workshops that focus on mental health in the workplace
    • Regional and Provincial guidelines for businesses during COVID-19.

    Your partnership and participation is critical as we move forward on this exciting initiative with our local business community. The BR&E initiative will help shape our community and economy by connecting with local businesses in a meaningful way.
