SBA Loan from Capital One Helps General Long-Distance Freight Trucking Company

Capital One and the SBA work together to get business loans for growing small businesses. Here's an example of how a South Carolina entrepreneur was able to get a loan to take a small business to the next level.

This business received financial assistance through the SBA's lending programs back in 2004. They applied for an SBA loan with Capital One, out of Mclean, Virginia. The loan was granted and they received $25,000 to help grow their Summerville, South Carolina business.

More Information on This SBA Loan

The borrower borrowed this money for an existing business. This loan was not for a franchise. At the time of the loan, the company had only one employee. This SBA loan request did not indicate that the small business promised to use the funding to add employees or retain any existing employees.

Next Steps for Getting an SBA Loan

Although it's called an SBA loan, you apply for an SBA loan with a local or national bank, not with the SBA. The bank processes the loan and gives you the money, and the SBA simply guarantees a portion of the loan.

Unless you are not in a hurry to get an SBA loan, it's best to work with a bank like Capital One that has already issued SBA-guaranteed loans. To get an SBA loan fast, work with a bank that participates in the SBA's Preferred Lenders Program (PLP).
