SMALL BUSINESS SUPPORT

Supporting small business, the Kawartha Lakes Small Business and Entrepreneurship Centre, part of the City’s Economic Development program, is pleased to present six local businesses who recently participated in the Starter Company PLUS Fall 2020 cohort. During this experience they took part in virtual business strategy research and training completed in early November. Now they’re working closely with the KLSBEC for the next six months as they implement their COVID-19 recovery strategy.

The Starter Company PLUS grant program provides training, funding opportunities and experience to help budding entrepreneurs and existing businesses start or expand their business. There are a number of cohorts each year and this cohort is made up of existing businesses with a focus on recovery from the impacts of COVID-19. These businesses include: • Hobbies and Beyond: A store in Lindsay for hobby enthusiasts with something for everyone.
