Increased Cost of Business (ICOB) Grant now available for small & medium sized businesses

As part of Budget 2024, the Government signed off on a package of €257m for an Increased Cost of Business (ICOB) Grant as a vital measure for small and medium businesses. 

If you run a small or medium size business, applications are open now and will be open until 1 May 2024. 

I know times are hard from many small businesses across our community, so any assistance from this scheme is very welcome. 

You do not need to wait until the deadline to apply and applications are already being processed. 

If you would like to read more about the eligibility criteria, there is more information here. 

If you have any queries about your business or making an application, please feel free to contact me or to contact the ICOB team directly at ICOB@dlrcoco.ie.

Thanks,

Anne
