Guyana is among several countries, member states of the Caribbean Export Development Agency that can access a newly developed Direct Supports Grant facility launched by the Agency in collaboration with the European Union (EU) that will enable business enterprises CARIFORUM member countries to access funding that will help them respond to the impact of the pandemic on their businesses.
Caribbean Export announced in a media release earlier this week that it is inviting CARIFORUM firms to submit proposals or applications for Direct Support Grants (DSG’s) of up to €15,000.
In making the announcement Caribbean Export said that it was “pleased to be able to address the needs of the CARIFORUM firms during this unprecedented time of uncertainty with a grant facility” which it says “enables firms to receive funds on a non-reimbursable basis rather than as in previous programmes, under the Direct Assistance Programme.”
