\"RestaurantWhen the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 was signed into law, it didn\u2019t just provide a round of stimulus checks to the nation\u2019s citizens. It also included a vital line item that has many restaurant owners breathing a big sigh of relief. The Restaurant Revitalization Fund is a restaurant industry-focused grant program that set aside $28.6 billion to assist the restaurants impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Here are the details we know so far about eligibility and when this grant will be available.<\/p>\n

Who Qualifies?
\nThis grant program is specifically for privately-owned restaurants that were established prior to March 13, 2020. The entity must own and operate 20 or fewer establishments to qualify. Individual restaurants can receive to up $5 million. Restaurant groups with 20 or fewer locations may qualify for up to $10 million in grants.<\/p>\n

How Much Will You Qualify For?
\nThe main goal of the Restaurant Revitalization Fund is to restore the lost revenues restaurants encountered during mandatory closures and stay-at-home orders due to the COVID-19 pandemic. That being said, the grant amount you will receive is calculated as follows:<\/p>\n

\u2022 2019 revenue minus 2020 revenue for restaurants established prior to 2019
\n\u2022 For restaurants that opened in 2019, they will average 2019 monthly revenues then multiply by 12, minus 2020 revenues.
\n\u2022 If your restaurant opened in 2020, your grant amount will be equal to eligible expenses minus your gross receipts received.<\/p>\n

Eligible Expenses
\nThe eligible expenses listed by the SBA to be included are:
\n\u2022 Payroll (excluding employee compensation exceeding $100,000 per year), paid sick leave
\n\u2022 Principal or interest on mortgage obligations; rent; utilities; maintenance including construction to accommodate outdoor seating
\n\u2022 Supplies such as protective equipment and cleaning materials
\n\u2022 Normal food and beverage inventory; certain covered supplier costs
\n\u2022 Operational expenses; and any other expenses that the SBA determines to be essential to maintaining operations.<\/p>\n

Eligible expenses must be incurred from 2\/15\/20 through 12\/31\/21. Funds must be spent on qualified expenses before the covered period ends. If the business permanently closes or grant funds aren\u2019t spent by end of the period, the business must return their funds to the Treasury.<\/p>\n

Special Reserves\/Prioritization
\n\u2022 $5 billion of the $28.6 billion is reserved for restaurants with less than $500,000 in gross receipts in 2019 for the first 60 days of the program.
\n\u2022 The SBA will also be prioritizing grants for restaurants that are owned and controlled by women, veterans, or socially and economically disadvantaged small business concerns for the initial 21-day period of the program.<\/p>\n

Restaurant owners can apply for a Restaurant Revitalization Grant through the SBA site, SBA.org. The program isn\u2019t currently open (March 17th, 2021), but they are expected to begin taking applications within a few weeks of the passage of the program. If you are in need of funds while waiting for this to open, we\u2019re here for you.
