ONE GEORGIA AUTHORITY ENTREPRENEUR AND SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT LOAN GUARANTEE PROGRAM

With Georgia Grown Business Loans, eligible entrepreneurs and small business owners living in rural areas may reap the benefits of their hard work and hometown loyalty. The OneGeorgia Authority and accredited Georgia financial institutions will provide entrepreneurs and small business owners with access to loans ranging from $35,000 up to $250,000 at competitive interest rates. This unique public-private partnership allows any accredited financial institution in Georgia access to these shared-risk loan funds, provided the ESB-funded project is geographically located in one of Georgia’s designated ESB Counties. Start-ups and small business owners are encouraged to seek assistance from one of the area offices of the Georgia SBDC (Small Business Development Center) in the development of business and marketing plans as well as financial projections, strengthening their application for an ESB Loan Guarantee from their lender of choice.
