Hospitality & Tourism Programs

Texas Hospitality & Tourism Grants, Loans & Incentives

Texas tourism generates over $180 billion in annual economic activity, supporting hotels, event venues, attractions, and travel services across the state. Hospitality businesses may qualify for workforce training grants through the Skills Development Fund, SBA lending programs, local hotel tax incentive programs, and economic development agreements in tourism zones.

Program Types

Programs Available for Hospitality & Tourism Businesses

Texas hospitality & tourism businesses may be eligible for these types of government programs, sourced from federal, state, and local agencies.

Small Business Loans

Government-backed loans provide below-market-rate financing for Texas businesses through SBA 7(a), SBA 504, Microloans, USDA rural lending, and CDFI programs. These loans typically offer lower interest rates, longer repayment terms, and lower down payments than conventional bank financing.

Workforce Training Programs

Workforce training programs fund employee training and development for Texas businesses. The Skills Development Fund, Apprenticeship programs, and On-the-Job Training grants help employers cover the cost of training new and existing workers, often through partnerships with community colleges and workforce boards.

Business Incentives

Business incentives are performance-based programs offered by state and local governments to attract investment and create jobs. Texas programs include the Texas Enterprise Fund, Chapter 380/381 agreements, tax increment financing, and deal-closing funds that provide direct financial incentives tied to job creation and capital investment commitments.

Technical Assistance & Business Consulting

Technical assistance programs provide free or subsidized expert consulting to Texas businesses. Programs include SBDCs, SCORE mentoring, the Texas Manufacturing Assistance Center (TMAC), Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (PTACs), and university-based programs that help businesses with strategy, operations, and government program navigation.

These are categories of programs in our database. Your screening report shows all programs that match your specific hospitality & tourism business profile.
