Toronto, Ontario — In support of a stronger Canada, Purolator announced that it is now accepting entries for the company’s True North Small Business Grant Contest. The contest offers three Canadian small businesses an opportunity to receive $20,000 in cash, plus $15,000 in marketing promotions and $500 in free shipping with Purolator.
The contest is designed to provide small businesses with the support and financing needed to help grow and continue to make positive impacts on Canadian communities and the economy. Both business owners and consumers can nominate a small business for the True North Small Business Grant Contest.
The True North Small Business Grant Contest is open from July 5 to August 16, 2021. To enter, nominators must provide a description of the business and explain how it helps strengthen Canada. Canadian small businesses can self-nominate, and any Canadian resident of legal age of majority can nominate a Canadian small business of their choice.
“Purolator has seen a 50 per cent increase in new small business accounts, as many are shifting business models to offer more online shopping options for their customers, and we want to support them as they adjust for growth,” says Stacey Cummings, Director of Marketing at Purolator. “It’s second nature for Canadians to rally together to support the local businesses we love in our communities, and we hope Canadian consumers will nominate their favourite local auto mechanic, veterinary clinic or law firm that could benefit from funding to grow or improve its business.”
