On June 29, Sendai City opened a contact point for application procedures for subsidies to support small and mid-size enterprises affected by the new coronavirus. The support center was created by Sendai City to support the management of these companies.

Specialist staff such as tax accountants and certified public accountants are available to give support and give free consultation on application process and subsidies. If small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are having problems with management structure and operation they can also get free consultation. It is even possible to get business plans reviewed and a market development strategy created at the center. You can check here to see what size companies are classified as SMEs in Japan.
