As the figures bear out, the LEOs continue to support small businesses in growing and creating new jobs across the entire country.
It is also worth noting that these tables only account for the investment and job creation that can be directly attributed to successful grant applications. The LEOs also provide significant assistance to the growth and development of small businesses through other interventions including Training and Development, Productivity and Competitiveness programmes, Mentoring and the Trading Online Vouchers.
