The **Advanced Manufacturing and Innovation C**** ompetitiveness (AMIC)** program can help eligible Ontario manufacturers fund projects involving:

✅ New capital equipment  
✅ Automation & robotics  
✅ Technology adoption  
✅ Facility modernization  
✅ Workforce skills development

Eligible businesses may receive support covering up to **15% of eligible project costs** through grants or interest-free loans, depending on the project and eligibility. Projects should strengthen competitiveness, create or upskill jobs, and drive business growth.

If you're a food manufacturer planning a major investment, now is the time to determine whether your project could qualify.

Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss your eligibility or upcoming expansion plans.
