Businesses in the six main street communities in Mississauga will be supported with dedicated Main Street Ambassadors, customized market research, data analysis and an opportunity to apply for non-repayable funding contributions for new and existing small businesses. The Ambassadors began working with businesses in Mississauga the second week of April and will provide business owners with guidance, business support and resources and help them explore opportunities to build and grow their business in their local main street community. The program will run until March 28, 2023.
