Food and tourism businesses gain from development group funding

Food and tourism businesses figure strongly in the latest round of funds allocated by the South and East Cork Area Development (SECAD).

Food and tourism businesses gain from development group funding

Backed by funding from the EU and the Government’s National Development Plan, the development group provides 50% of the investment costs across a range of job-sustaining enterprises in east Cork. Not surprisingly, given Irish agri-food’s present rising fortunes, the food sector has joined tourism as the region’s fastest growing area of activity.

Any group looking to access funding for their business, tourism project or community idea is invited to a free development group event on June 6, from 4pm-6.30pm at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Little Island, Cork. The maximum grant is €150,000.
