'Don't miss out on this great opportunity to grow your business'

Small business owners are reminded that Fulton Economic Development Corp. (FEDCO) has low-interest loans available.

These funds are made possible by a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and so far FEDCO has loaned nearly $1 million to businesses in Fulton County.

FEDCO urges small business owners to not miss out on this opportunity to grow their business.

The loans have a 3 percent fixed interest rate, and there is no fee to apply. Eligible businesses must have fewer than 50 employees and be located in Fulton County. Additionally, funds can be used for a variety of business needs.
