The federal and Ontario governments said there is still money available to applicants for the Grow Ontario Market Initiative.
The $12-million, five-year, program launched last year.
The Grow Ontario Market Initiative supports primary producers, food processors and
industry organizations with cost-share funding to help them undertake market analysis and planning, new product development and marketing.
“Our hardworking farmers and food processors produce the best products in the world,”
said the federal Agriculture Minister Lawrence MacAulay.
“With this funding through the Grow Ontario Market Initiative, we’re helping them promote their top-quality products and establish new markets here in Canada and around the world.”
Ontario Agriculture Minister Lisa Thompson said our government is steadfast in our commitment to the goals set out in ur Grow Ontario Strategy – including growing the province’s agriculture and food exports by eight percent annually.”
