State Government Provides New Support for Small Retailers.

Minister for Innovation, Services and Small Business Louise Asher today announced a new $6 million four year program to provide targeted assistance to retailers, at the launch of the Victorian Coalition Government's 2012 Small Business Festival.
"The Coalition Government will partner with councils and business trader groups to support small retail businesses in local shopping precincts as part of this new program," Ms Asher said.

"The four year $6 million Streetlife program for retailers will help them to develop their business and marketing strategies, boost skills, and improve online and social media capacity in order to increase customer traffic and sales. Applications for Streetlife will open later this year."
