Coles Nurture Fund

Coles launched the $50 million Nurture Fund in April 2015 to help small businesses innovate and grow.

Since then, Coles has offered more than $12 million in grants or interest-free loans to 27 different producers to help fund the development of new market-leading products, technologies and processes.

From Australia’s first quinoa processing facility, to chickpea tofu, to home grown garlic and to Australian first prawn farming technology, the Coles Nurture Fund is helping Aussie producers bring their big ideas to life.

Applications for the seventh round of funding are now open and close at 5pm AEST on Friday August 30, 2019.
