The Australian Industry Group on Friday announced the launching of several practical measures to assist thousands of businesses affected by the flooding to get back on their feet and resume normal operations.

The Ai Group Industry Connection Directory has been established which connects businesses offering products and services for free or discounted rates, to those companies affected by floods.

This directory is open to all businesses, Ai Group members and non-members, Australia wide to help their counterparts get back to business as soon as they can.

Ai Group members understand that support is crucial, and at this time of need, they wanted the opportunity to extend a lending hand.

Companies looking to list their products or services or to access these special offers should visit the Industry Connection Directory website.
