Local grants and Incentives

Manitoba Works Capital Incentive 

The Manitoba Works Capital Incentive encourages significant new business investment or existing business expansion by creating a competitive tax environment to help diversify Manitoba’s economy and stimulate job creation. The proponent of an approved project under the incentive receives a tax rebate of the incremental education property taxes that are generated as a result of capital investment on the approved property for a period of up to 20 years or until education property taxes are eliminated, whichever is sooner.


Manitoba Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit 

Qualified property includes new and used buildings, machinery, and equipment made available for use in Manitoba mainly for manufacturing or processing goods for sale or lease. The credit will first be applied to reduce the Manitoba corporation income tax payable. Then you can claim a part of the credit you are entitled to claim in a tax year as a refundable credit.


Strategic Innovation Fund 

The Strategic Innovation Fund (SIF) provides major investments in innovative projects that will help grow Canada’s economy for the well-being of all Canadians.


In Manitoba we have access to a variety of provincial and federal tax credits and incentives available to assist growing businesses – a list of many of the most popular ones can be found on our website here: http://bbdcbiz.ca/invest-develop/.
