Three businesses have joined the list of organisations that have benefitted from Gunnedah Shire Council’s Business Partner Program.

This innovative program invites Gunnedah Shire businesses and organisations to apply for funding towards a project that will expand their business, or an initiative that will benefit the local economy through increased employment or innovative opportunities.

Business Partner Program Advisory Group Chair Cr Colleen Fuller said the program helped businesses take the next step.

“It has been wonderful to see new businesses get underway and existing businesses grow through the Business Partner Program,” Cr Fuller said.

“Gunnedah Shire businesses are very innovative, and the advisory group considers each application on its individual merits, with priority given to those who demonstrate benefit and economic growth. We congratulate the three businesses who have been successful in Round 3.”

The successful applicants are:

• The Hen House - $3000 towards a cool room (subject to conditions)
• The Tawny Nest - $2000 towards purchase of psychological testing kits (subject to conditions)
• 360 Health Clinic - $1000 towards advertising.

Gunnedah Shire Council will undertake a review of the Business Partner Program before any rounds open in the 2024-25 financial year.
