Through guaranteed loans, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) helps small businesses finance plant construction, conversion, or expansion. SBA guaranteed loans can also be used to acquire equipment, facilities, supplies, working capital, leasehold improvements, renovations and/or soft costs.
