About the programme

Main Street awards help storefront and service businesses fund a specific growth project such as a second location, a kitchen build out or a point of sale rollout. Recipients receive a review session with a Lendora advisor.

Who can apply

Two or more years of trading history, annual revenue under twenty five million dollars, and a written project plan with quotes.

• Evidence that someone other than the founder wants this solved
• A budget for the award broken down by line, adding to the amount requested
• Three milestones with dates the committee can check against
• Formation papers and an employer identification number
