A total of $20,000 is available to fund industry grant programs. The Industry Matching Grant Program was designed to fund projects and activities that promote American lamb and further the goals and objectives of ALB's strategic plan.

There is $30,000 available for funding the Supplier Cooperative Program. ALB developed this program to encourage American lamb suppliers to promote American lamb products in the retail and/or foodservice sector.
