What is the ISO Grant Scheme Gwynedd County?
Gwynedd Council has launched a Town Centre Property Improvement Grant fund which is available to businesses in the county – the £270,000 fund offers grants of up to £25,000. The fund will offer financial support to businesses who want to develop detailed plans for renovating or developing their property, as well as offering financial support to upgrade buildings within town centres.
Gwynedd Council is keen to assist small and medium sized businesses located in Gwynedd to achieve ISO accreditations which set world-class specifications for products, services and systems, to ensure quality, safety and efficiency. A grant scheme is available which contributes towards the costs of a consultant to work with businesses in order to achieve the necessary standard for certification. The cost of the actual certification is not included in the scheme.
