Questions

Where do councils in Greater Manchester advertise tenders?

Contracts worth £30,000 or more must be published on the government's Find a Tender service. Smaller jobs are often advertised only on the council's own portal — in the North West that is usually The Chest — or sent as quotes to firms already on the council's list.

Are there business grants in Greater Manchester?

Yes. Businesses in Greater Manchester can apply for UK-wide and England schemes, and local grants from councils and business support bodies appear from time to time. We list them all with closing dates and check local sources every night.
