Success Stories

“A business development loan provided the financial boost for internally redesigning the machine and eliminating the flaw in the process.”

“I knew SCED was working for my success, not just their own bottom line,” David says. “I would definitely use them again.”

“I really wanted to do the right thing for downtown,” Jane White said.

“An appraisal was done which included improvements, so my loan funded all the remodeling, improvements, new chairs and computers,” Adelman says.

“How are you supposed to be new and succeed if you don’t change anything?!”

“The biggest challenge to obtaining financing was being a new business,” says Juli, “and fighting the assumption that I didn’t know what I was doing.”

Julie gives credit to SCED Loan Manager Ryan Richardson for “not just evaluating the numbers, but evaluating me."

SCED meets a critical demand for small business. They’re a key partner and they’ve proven their willingness to take calculated risks for small businesses.

“These are specialty-use buildings, so traditional financing… well, banks get a little scared to fund a project like this, even with a lot of collateral.”

“SCED really is a huge benefit for businesses owners. It’s just an amazing program.”
