Approximately 200 rural casual catering shops and another 100 rural music and dance clubs can call for a total of nearly HUF 300 million in support. The non-refundable subsidy of one million HUF, which can be applied for per store, is now the third element of the HUF 13 billion subsidy program launched by the Government of Hungary for rural restaurants. In the further autumn stages of the support program, cafes, buffets, liquor stores and bars will be able to submit their requirements.

The affected rural casual catering shops and music and dance clubs can apply from August 5 to September 5. The HUF 1 million funds that can be requested per store can be requested – in accordance with the previous sections – for the purchase of modern kitchen technology devices, for improvements that support energy-efficient and economical operation, for the purchase of smaller devices or supplies necessary for everyday operations, and can also be used for larger investments.

The support is now the third element of the program called “Increasing the competitiveness of small and medium-sized rural catering enterprises” announced by the Government of Hungary, the purpose of which is to mitigate the competitive disadvantage of rural service providers as a result of the territorial concentration of domestic tourism. In addition, in order to further strengthen the digitalization of the tourism sector, applicants can start the application from the system of the National Tourist Information Center (NTAK), with minimal administration, in which they are also assisted by customer service. Additional information about the program and the detailed call for tenders are available on the online site kisfaludyprogram.hu.
