- This is the biggest transactional year for QRIDA in its 28-year history, demonstrating our passion and capacity to assist rural industry and businesses across the state.
- We played an important role in delivering COVID-19 financial support as part of the Queensland Government’s Economic Recovery Strategy. We delivered nine programs providing relief to businesses across the state from the devastating impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic including the COVID-19 Business Support Grant program, delivering over $321 million to more than 31,600 impacted businesses across the state.
