The Made in Victoria Program is offering grants to local manufacturers to enhance productivity, create jobs and transition to net zero emissions.

Two funding rounds are available: the Manufacturing Growth Program, with grants up to $250,000, closing on December 19, and the Energy Technologies Manufacturing Program, offering $100,000 to $750,000, closing on December 13.

These grants aim to foster new technologies and operational expansion in manufacturing.

State Member for Shepparton Kim O’Keeffe has emphasised the critical role of manufacturing in Greater Shepparton's economy.
