What Our Clients Say
Steve KeneppOwner
Architectural Precast InnovationsSEDA-COG helped me realize many programs, loans, grants, and support designed to help small businesses success. The loan allowed us to reduce our monthly payment by 50 percent, freeing up capital for other operational expenses.

SEDA-COG put windows in each floor of my house, installed a handicap-accessible bathroom, and installed new entry doors. I just can’t believe it was done the way it was; SEDA-COG really helped me out a lot.
