I’m pleased to announce that Gilliam County’s Business Development Loan Program is now open and taking applicants. This new program is open to Gilliam County businesses and non-profit organizations employing at least one part-time individual. If your business is looking to expand, diversify, or just needs a little boost of working capital, our program gives you a great option for favorable rates and terms. Funding can be used independently or as gap financing.
Starting a new business venture? This program can work for you too! Click here (http://bit.ly/aqKvDB) to download the program’s informational brochure for a more complete picture. Additional information and application packets can be obtained at several locations around the county: the Gilliam County Courthouse (the Economic Development department), Pioneer Community Development Corporation in Condon and any Gilliam County Bank of Eastern Oregon Branch.
