Applications for the Brandon Economic Restart Program will close at the end of February, the City of Brandon announced Tuesday.
The program, which offered local businesses one-time grants of up to $2,500 to invest in services, marketing, technology and equipment, was first launched in August 2021.
A deadline for the end of the program had not previously been announced.
Now businesses must submit their applications before 5 p.m. on Feb. 28.
To qualify, a business must have been legally operating in Brandon on or before July 12, 2020, be able to demonstrate that it has lost income during the pandemic and invest a minimum of 10 per cent of their own funds towards the proposed project.
Government organizations, post-secondary institutions, health authorities, craft-based home businesses and independent consultations were not made eligible for the program.
