NEDBIC Marketing & Branding Grant

Applications are open for the Northeast Dairy Business Innovation Center’s Dairy Marketing & Branding Services Grant.

This grant provides funding to hire professional marketing and branding experts for existing value-added dairy processors, producer associations, and dairy brands using co-packing services. These professionals will develop strategies to increase consumer awareness, improve product positioning, and expand market reach for regional value-added dairy businesses.

At least 75% of grant funds must be used for these professional services, ensuring that the expert drives the project’s direction. Up to 25% of the grant funds may be used to implement the professional’s recommendations, such as printing marketing materials, launching advertising campaigns, or updating branding and packaging.  

Awards will range from $10,000 – $50,000, with a cash and/or in-kind match requirement of 25%. Applications are due May 8 at 2pm EST.

Grants are available to applicants in 11 Northeast states, including Maine
