Regional Chair Gary Carr: Supports and resources for Halton’s business owners and operators

Aug 20, 2020

Every step of the way, our Small Business Centre has continued to provide resources, webinars and one-on-one consultations to help businesses navigate reopening and adjust to the new normal. Our professional team of business consultants are also here to support business owners and operators as we continue to reopen our economy and maintain important safety measures and by-laws to protect the community—and our team will continue to be here for local businesses in the months ahead.

Here are a few of the many resources available to local businesses during this time:

  • Small Business Webinars: To support business owners and operators through each stage of the reopening, our Small Business Centre has been running webinars to help with reopening safely and planning for recovery. You can find a list of upcoming webinars and recordings of past webinars on our Small Business Centre webpage and COVID-19 Resources for Businesses webpage on halton.ca.
  • COVID-19 Resources for Businesses webpage: This page is a one-stop source of information offering resources and supports from different levels of government.
  • Reopening Halton Region webpage: This webpage provides resources and information on Stage 3 of the reopening, including what has reopened and what remains closed. There is also information on the mandatory mask by-law, including a list of frequently asked questions for business owners and operators.

As we continue on the path to economic recovery in the months ahead, I also want to encourage residents to support local businesses and restaurants in Halton. From shopping safely in-store to eating at local restaurants and ordering food for takeout, we can all do our part to support businesses that have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. It is also important to continue taking preventative measures, such as wearing masks indoors, to maintain the progress that we’ve made so far.

Businesses can reach out to our knowledgeable and friendly team for help implementing the mandatory mask by-law or with any questions about reopening in Stage 3. To connect with our team, access informative webinars, find helpful resources or set up a one-on-one consultation, please visit halton.ca or call 311.
