What SEDC Offers
Business loans are our prime service. We try to put your business in a position to create the jobs you need quickly and safely. We can be a “gap” financier, primary financier, or lender of last resort (please don’t wait that long.) We serve as a “central point of contact”, linking businesses and non-profit organizations with funding and assistance programs. We pre-screen our customers to direct them towards high probability sources of help that are appropriate for your needs.
Additional Services
We watch for special government & private programs of all kinds, not just finance. Procurement, training, market opportunities, employees; we keep the information flowing to you.
Our network of goods and services, built by our own clients, help keep business local. We arrange meetings to connect you with those who can help of clients who meet operation needs. There is even a hot new invention on the market as a result of one such meeting!
Once in a blue moon, we find the best form of financial assistance: grants!
Our Approach
We believe that our process makes life easier for customers. Preparing one application for financial assistance, up front, yields better results under the guidelines we have put together. Distributing that application to appropriate banks and agencies, with a proposed finance structure, saves the customer and the financiers time.
Service Partners
We work with many local, regional and national partners, including banks, credit unions, secondary lenders, investors, municipalities, state agencies, and federal agencies. Contact us for more information.
Our Team
Our staff & directors have a strong, diverse business background with enough collective experience to make it all work.
