“Chatham Brewing benefited from an SBA microloan from CEDC when we were just getting started. A second loan from CEDC allowed us to expand into our current location. Today, our beers are sold in stores and restaurants from Saratoga to New York City. Visit our tasting room on Main Street next time you’re in Chatham.

“When my small engine repair business began to take off, I needed a loan to expand the shop. It can be hard to find a loan for a startup business, but CEDC approved my loan, and they have been easy to work with. I recommend CEDC for small business loans.”
