About
Legacy business programs are designed to preserve longtime businesses that contribute to a neighborhood’s history, identity, and character. Programs are often established by local jurisdictions, business associations, or community-based organizations and provide small businesses with grants, technical assistance, and marketing and branding services. These programs also offer financial incentives, including grants, to commercial landlords to retain legacy businesses. The COVID-19 pandemic spurred cities and organizations across the United States to develop more legacy business programs.
