HAVRE, Mont. (NMB) – With the COVID-19 pandemic continuing to take a toll on local businesses, Bear Paw Development Corporation Executive Director Paul Tuss wants people to know that there is assistance available.
“We continue to offer businesses, both existing businesses that perhaps want to expand, as well as new entrepreneurs that want to start a business, we have one of Montana’s frankly largest revolving loan funds that is capitalized through funding by our state and federal partners. So if there are people out there that have lending needs that aren’t being currently met through traditional bank financing, Bear Paw Development’s loan department would be a good option, potentially, for them.”
Tuss says other options available to help private sector businesses can be found through the Montana Department of Commerce or the Small Business Administration.
