Why choose BCEDC?
Obtaining a loan from a bank or private capital for small businesses can sometimes be impossible. We’ll handle the hard parts so you can focus on your business.
“We had initially approached our own bank for the loan and they said that despite having good credit, their policy is not to lend to used car dealers! BCEDC is much more open-minded and really invested in improving the economic viability of the Southcoast. It is really an invalauble resource for small businesses in the area. Everyone at the BCEDC office was helpful during the loan application and closing process and I highly recommend their services to other business owners in the region!”
