The U.S. Small Business Administration's Regional Office and the U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development Georgia State Director’s Office have designed Rural Strong-Georgia to help spur economic development efforts across Georgia. The initiative will kick off in Hall County on July 25.
As part of the day-long event, the team will visit Mountain Fresh Creamery in Clermont at 9:30, a small business that has used SBA, USDA services; meet with area lending institutions to increase entrepreneur’s access to capital; and conclude with a kickoff event at noon at Jaemor Farms in Alto.
The kickoff event is open to the public and will include multiple resources for entrepreneurs ranging from loan programs, counseling programs, assistance in government contracting, exporting, and much more. Anyone interested in starting or growing their small business should register for this first of its kind event.
