ONE OF NEW JERSEY’S LARGEST AND MOST ACTIVE SINGLE MUNICIPALITY CHAMBERS
The Nutley community has been hit exceedingly hard by COVID-19. The Nutley Chamber of Commerce would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends of those who have lost their lives and we pray for the full recovery of those currently battling the coronavirus.

New Jersey Economic Development Authority – Small Business Grants: The New Jersey Economic Development Authority announced Wednesday it will begin accepting applications in May for a number of the recently announced programs that are aimed at providing $85 million in grants to various types of small businesses. The programs include $25 million for microbusinesses (5 or fewer employees), $15 million for small businesses (6 to 50 employees), $10 million for child care centers and $35 million for eating/drinking establishments. More information is available here. The EDA is calling it Phase 4 of its Small Business Emergency Assistance Grant Program. And, if your business did not get any funding during Phase 3, you get to go first. (Please note, you must preregister.) CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS AND REGISTRATION INFORMATION.
Independent Restaurant Coalition – Independent Restaurant & Bar Grants: A $28.6 billion restaurant and bar grant program will be made available soon.

BRINGING NEW POST-COVID-19 TRAFFIC TO NUTLEY
In order to pull the workers and students from the ON3 (formerly Hoffmann-La Roche) campus into Nutley, the Nutley Chamber of Commerce is investing in a “ON3 Gateway to Nutley Project” to benefit our members. The Chamber has purchased 2,500 “Love Nutley, Shop Nutley” reusable shopping bags, which will be distributed to the businesses and schools at ON3, along with a coupon book containing Chamber members’ ON3-specific coupons. There will be no cost to Chamber members to be included in the booklet. If you wish to participate, please download the corresponding links below, depending if you’re already a member or if you are a non-member, interested to join:
