AID FOR THE PROCESSING, MARKETING OR DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS IN THE COMMUNITY OF MADRID

AID FOR THE PROCESSING, MARKETING OR DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS IN THE COMMUNITY OF MADRID

Madrid is undoubtedly a strategic region for the agri-food industry and a powerful logistical distribution point which, over the last few decades, has attracted industrial investment that has been able to meet the demand for large volumes of product with total guarantee.

In line with European Union guidelines, the commitment to regional companies in the agri-food sector must be a priority, with the aim of improving their positioning and contributing to the creation of a technologically advanced, technically and economically viable and environmentally sustainable sector.

Along these lines, on 11 January 2021, the Regional Ministry for the Environment, Regional Planning and Sustainability of the Community of Madrid, through its Directorate-General for Agriculture and Livestock, published a call for applications for aid for the processing, marketing or development of agricultural products.

This aid, in the form of a grant and co-financed by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), is aimed at micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and intermediate enterprises. In short, the beneficiaries will be agri-food industries whose raw materials are included in Annex I of the EU Treaty, with fewer than 750 employees or less than 200 million euros in turnover.
The Budget of the Community of Madrid initially envisages a total of 3,500,000 euros for this aid in 2021. The allocated credit will be distributed, by groups, as follows:

  • Investments made by associative entities (Cooperatives and Agricultural Transformation Companies): 1.155.000€.
  • Other investments (other companies that are not associative entities): 2.345.000€.

This direct non-refundable aid will be 20% of the total investment, although it could be increased up to 40% depending on the requirements detailed in Article 4 “Amount of aid” of the call extract

The deadline for submitting applications will be twenty working days from the day following the publication of the call for applications in the Official Gazette of the Community of Madrid, i.e. until 8 February 2021.

At artica+i we have a team specialised in the management of this type of aid for innovative investment, offering support to our clients throughout the administrative and economic management process of their productive, energy and/or environmental investments. In addition, thanks to their more than 25 years of experience in the Food and Beverage sector, our professionals offer high added value in the technical management of these aids to the agri-food sector.
