Activities to mitigate the impact of Covid Pandemic
To mitigate the socio-economic impact of the COVID induced crisis, USAID/Zrda supported Samvel Margariani and helped his “Family Corner” purchase various hiking and leisure equipment such as home audio system, projector, tents, hammocks, tennis table, portable fridge, GoPro, etc.
„USAID/Zrda assisted travel value chain players to adapt their services and working procedures in line with the new Covid-protocols and initiated a subsidiary program encouraging former partner enterprises and individual entrepreneurs. To this end, Zrda allocated a total financing pool of GEL 300,000, shortlisted and awarded 14 entrepreneurs, up to 30,000 Gel per award, to help them retain jobs, commence new tourism activities and stay competitive on the market“.
