The Manitoba government is supporting an additional 37 Manitoba companies through Export Support Programming funding to help them expand the export of their products and services into new and more diversified markets, Business, Mining, Trade and Job Creation Minister Jamie Moses announced today.
“With U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs creating economic uncertainty, it’s more important than ever to help Manitoba companies promote their products internationally,” said Moses. “Our Export Support Programming helps local businesses showcase their Manitoba products and services to the world, creating good jobs and strengthening our economy at home. During this critical and uncertain time for global trade, we’re proud to provide local businesses with the opportunity to expand their reach and explore new markets.”
Export Support Programming provides financial assistance to small- and medium-sized enterprises in Manitoba to participate in trade shows or missions outside of the province, with the goal of expanding existing or entering new export markets.
Under the program, 37 companies will receive a total of $171,895 in funding, noted the minister.
