How COVID-19 is Impacting your Business and How we can Help
The City of Surrey is working with senior levels of government to support local businesses and is interested in understanding how the current pandemic is affecting your business and if it has changed since the beginning of this crisis. We are looking for feedback from you on your current operations as we continue to respond to the global economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
WHERE TO START:
We understand that many Canadian business owners and entrepreneurs are anxious about how to get the help you need in the face of COVID-19. Here are a few good places to start:
- Visit our website for businesses for information about supporting your employees and your business. It is constantly updated as the COVID-19 crisis evolves.
- Contact your local financial institution. Since we know most small businesses have a relationship with their local financial institution already, we’ve worked with the financial sector to increase their lending capability to support you in in this challenging time. They are a good first place to start for help.
- Download the Canada Business App to find tailored supports to address your needs in the face of COVID-19.
- Consult the Canadian Chamber of Commerce’s pandemic preparedness guide to help prepare you business in the days and weeks to come.
