Storefront Improvement Program

The Spruce Grove Storefront Improvement Program has been renewed for another three years from January 26, 2026 to December 31, 2028.

The Spruce Grove Storefront Improvement Program (SIP) provides funding to commercial property and business owners in the greater City Centre to make exterior improvements to their storefronts. This program can:

• Increase sales and foot traffic by improving window shopping and curb appeal;
• Encourage a high standard of storefront maintenance;
• Renew existing businesses, attract new businesses, and fill vacancies.

The City of Spruce Grove has allocated $75,000 per year to provide up to 50% matching grants of up to a maximum of $7,500 per storefront or up to $10,000 for improvements on a street corner where improvements are made to two façades. The funding is available on a first-come, first-served basis until the funding has been committed.

Eligibility

• Eligible storefronts are purpose-built commercial units accessed from the ground level.
• Home-based businesses do not qualify.
• The program applies to properties and businesses located within the new Storefront Improvement Program Area (see map below).
