Funding Available for Food-Related Businesses
Operators of restaurants, bars, food trucks, caterers, and related businesses can apply for funds from the new Restaurant Revitalization Fund (RRF) set up by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). The American Rescue Plan Act established the RRF to provide such businesses with funding equal to their pandemic-related revenue loss up to $10 million per business and no more than $5 million per brick-and-mortar location. Recipients are not required to repay the funding as long as funds are used for eligible uses no later than March 11, 2023. Details are on the SBA website.
