• Did you know CVEDC offers a nontraditional lending program with thousands of dollars of FREE services available to borrowers each year of their loan?

  • The United States Department of Agriculture backs our Rural Microentrepreneur Assistance Program, a special lending program for rural small businesses

  • Each year, we will meet with you weekly or monthly to help build the projects that will support your company's growth

  • You pick the people you work with and define the projects, and let us do the rest

  • The value of the work the program brings to small rural businesses is the best part of RMAP and typically more than the dollar amount of the loan

Introducing CVEDC’s first in person lending Q&A, Tuesday, April 18 at the National Life building 10-12. Virtual option available.

Did you know that CVEDC has its own nontraditional lending program for Central Vermont businesses? It’s backed by the USDA and includes annual granted services, project managed by our office.

Some ways you could use this program: fit-up a commercial space you’re purchasing, and use the grant to fund a complete website overhaul, SEO implementation, and a new marketing program over a three-year period; add working capital in to a loan you are considering, and use the grant to develop a new employee handbook and consult with an employment lawyer; borrow ahead of a transition or move, and use the grant to receive accounting help to be sure of your cash flow going forward.
