The Erie County Redevelopment Authority publishes information about its business and micro-enterprise capital programs. Erie owners can use the official program pages to compare available options and identify the appropriate contact.

Funding is subject to the terms, eligibility requirements and review process of each program. A published program description does not establish that a particular business qualifies or that an application will be approved. This regional guide points to the official information rather than quoting unverified loan terms.
