Supply Chain Stability and Adaptability Program

The Supply Chain Stability and Adaptability Program provides $10 million in support to strengthen Ontario’s agri-food sector by building resilience and aiding in post-COVID recovery. It includes two funding streams:

  1. Agri-Food Supply Chain Infrastructure Investment Stream (SCII):
    Helps agri-food businesses expand their capacity to meet rising demand for locally grown and produced food by funding investments in new equipment and infrastructure.
  2. Agri-Food Supply Chain Resiliency Analysis Stream (SCRA):
    Focuses on identifying supply chain and market disruptions caused or worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic and supports strategies to address them.
