ATLANTA – The U.S. Small Business Administration announced the opening of a Business Recovery Center Tuesday, June 28, 2016 to assist small businesses, small agricultural cooperatives, small aquaculture businesses and most private nonprofit organizations in applying for low interest disaster loans.  The loans are available due to the SBA disaster declaration as a result of the Orlando attack on June 12, 2016.

The disaster declaration covers Orange County and the neighboring counties of Brevard, Lake, Osceola, Polk, Seminole and Volusia in Florida.

“Businesses with economic losses resulting from the recent attack should seriously consider visiting the Center and applying for an SBA disaster loan,” said Wilfredo Gonzalez, SBA’s North Florida district director.
