BIF Approvals - Company 0104

06/11/2019 - BIF Approvals - Company 0104

A report was received to enable the Board to take a decision whether to support the proposal of a Business Investment Fund (BIF) Indigenous grant of £85,000 to an environmental print business who would like to expand and purchase new machinery.

 

The project is estimated to deliver 10 gross and 4 net additional full time equivalent (FTE) jobs, representing an LGF cost per net additional job of £20,988. The 4 net additional jobs will yield additional GVA of circa £1.4m (present value) over ten years, which equates to a return of £16.97 for every £1 of LGF investment.  The project is therefore considered to provide acceptable value for money for the BIF Indigenous investment.

 

Board Members asked if the cotton bags sold by company 0104 were biodegradable. 

 

S Sykes agreed to obtain confirmation when the contract was issued to Company 0104.  ACTION: Sue Sykes.
