Enhancing Market Demand Grants Program – Round 2
The Enhancing Market Demand Grants Program – Round 2 will award grants totalling up to $4.4 million over 3 years from 2025‑26 to 2027‑28.
The objectives of the program are to:
- enhance demand for Australian sheep products interstate and internationally, and
- support diversification opportunities for Australian agri-food exports to the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
The intended outcomes of the program are:
- grow the profile of Australian sheep products
- aid the diversification of markets for sheep and broader agri-food products to the MENA region
- boost confidence in the domestic sheep industry
- assist the industry to adjust through transitioning to other opportunities in Australia and overseas.
Round 2 will fund projects that will increase information available to Australian sheep, agriculture, food and fibre industries on market opportunity and/or stronger business-to-business relationships (for interstate and overseas markets for Australian sheep products; and/or markets for Australian agri-food in the MENA region).
Grant Opportunity Guidelines and other supporting documents will be published when the grant opportunity is open for applications.
