The business initiative targets 50 small companies working in the construction industry in the city in a range of areas from mechanical and electrical engineering to landscaping, shop-fitting and interior design.
Alderman Christopher Stalford, Chairman of Belfast City Council's Development Committee, said: "The construction sector has suffered greatly over the last few years but we are determined to do everything that we can to breathe new life into the sector. The Construction Sales Growth Programme is a great way of bringing buyers and suppliers together and creating mutual opportunities."
