The £20m Flexible Growth Fund was established in January 2020, when the Metro Mayor launched a £75 million Business Growth Package, the largest set of business support funds seen in decades. The Fund’s aim is to help kickstart investment across the Liverpool City Region in projects which create jobs and re-invigorate the economy.
David Bundred, Surface Transforms’ Chairman, said ‘’Over the years we have received whole-hearted support from a variety of partners across the Liverpool City Region and having previously secured funding support through AFM/MSIF, we were delighted when our contact within the Business Growth Team at Knowsley Council, suggested applying to them for this Loan support.’’
Steve Rotheram, Mayor of the Liverpool City Region, said: “When I launched my £75m Business Growth Package in 2019, it was to enable ambitious local businesses, like Surface Transforms, to grow, and to attract innovative and expanding new businesses to our city region. I didn’t want us to rest on our laurels – at the time we were the fastest growing region in the country – but to keep pushing to do better.
“That desire to keep doing better is what drives successful companies like Surface Transforms, and supporting their expansion, with the creation of high-quality local jobs, is exactly what the Flexible Growth Fund was designed to do. In time, this loan will be repaid and we can put the money to work again, creating jobs and opportunities for local people, by supporting ambitious local companies.”
O Fundo de Crescimento Flexível é gerenciado em nome da LCR Combined Authority por Business Managers. E estamos ansiosos para ver as transformações da superfície crescerem com seu aumento da capacidade de produção. Esperamos que mais empresas baseadas em LCR, que procuram crescimento para criar novos empregos localmente, considere apresentar seus planos de aproveitar a super-dedicação para gastos com capital anunciados dentro do orçamento de 2021 e, se o fizer, o suporte por meio desse fundo está disponível. ” Contato
