SBA Loan from Innovative Bank Helps Specialty Food Stores Company

This growing company received financial assistance through the SBA's lending programs back in 2007. They applied for an SBA loan with Innovative Bank, out of Oakland, California. The loan was granted and they received $15,000 to help grow their Birmingham, Alabama business.

Start the Process for Getting an SBA Loan Today!

Don't apply for a loan directly with the SBA. You need to apply for an SBA loan with a local or national bank, not with the SBA. The bank processes the loan and gives you the money, and the SBA simply guarantees a portion of the loan.

Many small business owners never get a business loan because they never bother to apply for a business loan. If you take the initiative, you may get a loan, just like this company did when it applied for and received this $15,000 loan. Remember, fight for what you want, and it will be yours!
