The first round of the Business Partner Program 2022 has opened, giving Gunnedah’s new and existing businesses an opportunity to kick-start their ideas.

The program has assisted many Gunnedah Shire businesses and organisations to expand operations, launch new initiatives, or upgrade key infrastructure.

“The Business Partner Program is a great opportunity for businesses to get new projects off the ground and realise their ideas,” Gunnedah Shire Council Director Planning and Environmental Services Andrew Johns said.

“The Gunnedah Shire has a diverse range of businesses, and the Business Partner Program is just one way Council is continuing to support the active business community.

“The program has funded everything from renovations to branding to start-up costs for veterinary clinics, landscaping businesses, real estates, pubs and printeries, among many others.

“I encourage businesses and organisations who are ready to grow, or who have a new initiative that will lead to a stronger economy and employment, to submit an Expression of Interest.”

Expressions of Interest for the latest round of the Business Partner Program will close on Monday, 30 June, 2022.
