MANATEE COUNTY: What impact is COVID-19 having on Suncoast small businesses? 

The Manatee Chamber of Commerce wants to know and is offering help.  The chamber encourages businesses to complete a Business Damage Assessment survey. 

Among other things, they’re looking for?  The impact of the COVID-19 virus. The survey is completed online…

“On that web page, you can find a link to the business damage assessment survey and even though we know many businesses will not yet be able to calculate what their damage is financially for themselves or for their employees, it’s important to register on that site,” says President and CEO of the Manatee Chamber of Commerce,  Jackie Dezelski. “You can leave as many of the fields blank, as you don’t yet feel able to complete them.”

Dezelski recommends businesses fill out the survey even if you haven’t experienced any impact as yet.
