Amex backs Aussie small businesses with $2 million grants

American Express is committing up to $2 million in grants to support Australian small businesses, offering 50 grants of $20,000 each, with potential for another 50 grants based on customer purchases made with Amex cards at small businesses between the first and seventh. A new Amex survey reveals Australia's favourite small business shopping destinations, with South Melbourne topping the list, followed by Surry Hills, Paddington and Darlinghurst tied for second, and Parramatta in third. Surfer and business owner Mick Fanning serves as an Amex ambassador for the initiative.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
