Grants & Funding

Free money exists. Most
businesses never apply.
Let us do it for you.

The Mauritian government and public financial institutions offer millions in grants, subsidised loans, and tax incentives every year — but most SME owners don't know where to start. We do.

Higher success rate for professionally prepared applications vs self-submitted ones

Most business owners assume grants are for big companies or too complicated to apply for. The reality is that dozens of schemes exist specifically for Mauritius SMEs — and the main barrier is simply knowing where to look and how to apply correctly.

Common questions

QIs this service free?

The initial eligibility assessment is completely free. For application writing and submission support, we charge a fixed service fee agreed in advance. Some engagements use a success-based model — we always agree on terms before starting any work.

QWhat types of funding are available in Mauritius?

There are several active categories: SME matching grants, training and skills subsidies, digitisation incentives, state-backed development loans, investment tax holidays, and sector-specific tourism or export incentives. Rodrigues businesses also qualify for additional regional development programmes. We keep an updated database and will match you to the right ones.

QMy business is in Rodrigues — does that change what is available?

It actually helps. Rodrigues-based businesses qualify for additional regional development funding and tourism-specific incentives that are not available to mainland Mauritius businesses. Being based in Rodrigues is often an advantage when applying.

QHow long does an application take?

Preparation typically takes 1–3 weeks depending on the complexity of the scheme and the documents required. Processing by the funding body then takes 6–12 weeks on average. We advise starting early — especially before the financial year end when budgets are allocated.

QWhat are my chances of success?

Success depends on your business profile, the quality of the application, and the specific scheme. Professionally prepared applications consistently achieve a significantly higher approval rate than self-submitted ones. We will only recommend applying where we believe there is a genuine, strong case.

QDo I need an accountant or lawyer?

Not necessarily for most grant applications. We handle the business case and narrative writing. For applications that require audited accounts, legal documents, or formal financial projections, we coordinate with your existing advisors or can recommend trusted partners in Mauritius.
