How much can you get in government funding?
Each business has different funding requirements. There is often no set amount as to how much it will cost you to startup, expand, or to operate your Athletic Clothing Line.
While it’s easy to say, “I need £50,000 to start my Athletic Clothing Line”, or “I need £500,000”; the process to determine your needs in detail should come first. This often requires a proper business plan to be done to help you determine your goals as well as your needs – in order to help you understand how much in government funding you need.
Each government funding agency has the amounts that they are comfortable providing business owners. These amounts vary and depend on a number of factors.
These factors can include the specific business you are in (the industry), your location, what you need funding for, how much you need, when you need it by, how effective your business plan is, your financial, in certain cases your credit score and more. These factors are used to determine quite a lot, and how much you may be eligible for.
As a Athletic Clothing Line and based on the funding needs mentioned above (not taking into consideration other factors), others in the same industry have been successful at obtaining between as little as £25,000 and as much as £500,000. This does not reflect how much you would be able to obtain but gives you an idea of the ranges. To determine if you are eligible for any funding, you can speak to a funding expert now.
