Escalate Loans
Could your Business Benefit from an Escalate Loan?
Kent County Council is looking to boost business growth in Kent by offering financial support to businesses that can demonstrate the ability to boost the local economy. If you’re a sole trader, partnership, limited company or a not for profit business, and you’re located in the following areas of Kent, then you may be entitled to an Escalate loan. Part of the Regional Growth Fund, the loan is designed for businesses creating jobs in:
- Maidstone
- Sevenoaks
- Tonbridge and Malling
- Tunbridge Wells
- Hastings
- Rother
- Wealden
If your business is not based one of these areas, there are other funding programs available; these include Tiger, Marsh Millions and Expansion East Kent loans - speak to us today for further advice and information. Call 0203 397 7444 to find out more about business expansion loans in your area.
Kent County Council is backing companies that are safeguarding or creating new jobs and that have good growth potential. They are even encouraging certain sectors to apply for Escalate loans, due to the expected growth potential in the life science, ICT and manufacturing markets.
Kent County Council has £5.5 million ready to invest in businesses in Kent that have great opportunities for growth and boosting the economy. If you feel that your business falls into these categories, then you may be able to receive an Escalate loan to help fund your developments. These loans are not designed to fund 100% of your projects; instead they are a contribution to help you start those projects you otherwise might not have been able to secure funding for.
