Description of Program and Relief
PPE Production Grant Program
The Missouri Department of Economic Development has established the PPE Production Grant Program, which uses $20 million in funding under the CARES Act to foster increased manufacturing of personal protective equipment (PPE).
The PPE Production Grant Program awards grants to manufacturers which shift their manufacturing infrastructure to the production of PPE. The grants assist eligible businesses with up to $500,000 in funds to offset the costs of retrofitting machinery and hiring additional personnel to produce PPE. Manufacturers can use grant funds to retrofit, upgrade, or purchase equipment, as well as expand facilities. Twenty percent of funding may be set aside for nonprofit organizations and manufacturers with less than 25 employees.
