Boost for town centre businesses in Ammanford

Grant aid is now available to businesses in Ammanford Town Centre to improve their shop fronts.
Businesses are invited to apply for a Town Improvement Grant (TIG) to improve their premises.
It is envisaged that the improvements will enhance the visual appearance of the buildings, increase local confidence and encourage private sector investment in the town.
The Town Improvement Grant (TIG) will assist and encourage the private sector to undertake environmental improvements to their commercial properties.
Funding up to 75% of eligible costs will be available per property up to a maximum of £25,000.
Eligible organisations that can apply for a grant include small, medium and micro enterprises (SME’s) and Community Enterprises.
Cllr Hugh Evans, who represents Ammanford, said: “I am delighted that the council plans to introduce a Town Improvement Grant scheme and hope that as many local businesses as possible will take advantage of the opportunity to improve their shopfronts.”
Executive board member for regeneration and leisure Cllr Clive Scourfield said: “The Town Improvement Grant scheme will provide a welcome boost for Ammanford by helping businesses to improve their premises and attract new trade while also improving the attractiveness of the commercial area of the town.”
