- SBA 7a Loan from Centrust Helps Entrepreneur Expand the Reach of her Online Boutique
With a passion for fun, trendy, festival-fashion, an entrepreneur set her sights on receiving financial assistance to bring her online boutique to life. Centrust provided her with an SBA 7a loan to help her get started. Now, almost three years later Centrust had provided the business, Festy Besty, with an additional SBA 7a loan to expand her inventory of creative pieces and operate her pop-up shops at some of the most notable music festivals throughout America. Through the help of our SBA loan and the massive success of her online boutique, she is now preparing to film her own TV show in the upcoming months.
