Are retired entrepreneurs able to apply for a government small business loan?

A small business loan may be available to entrepreneurs with retired status, because that does not matter with regards to qualifying for such a loan provided your loan application to a government agency otherwise meets the conditions of that particular agency and programme. The agency may require you prepare a small business plan. As a retiree, you may have an advantage given work experience and the likelihood that you own your own home. Should you need assistance with the process, get in touch with us at, freephone, 020 3880 8554 to talk to a representative or fill out our web site’s email contact form.
