The Mathis Economic Development Corporation (EDC) is proud to support the growth and success of local businesses through educational opportunities and financial assistance programs. Recently, we celebrated two key initiatives that highlight our commitment to empowering entrepreneurs and fostering a thriving business community in Mathis.
Lunch & Learn: Funding Opportunities for Local Entrepreneurs
A group of passionate women business owners joined us for our recent Lunch & Learn, an event focused on exploring funding opportunities to help their businesses grow and succeed. Attendees gained valuable insights into grants, loans, and other financial resources available to support small business development in Mathis. The collaborative atmosphere encouraged networking and the exchange of ideas, equipping these business leaders with the tools they need to take their ventures to the next level.
At Mathis EDC, we believe that empowering our local entrepreneurs not only strengthens individual businesses but also builds a resilient and vibrant local economy.
Golden Beauty Bar: A Façade Grant Success
We are also excited to highlight the success of Golden Beauty Bar, a recent recipient of our Façade Grant Program. This grant helped the salon purchase a new sign, enhancing their business’s visibility and curb appeal. The Golden Beauty Bar’s investment in its exterior not only elevates its brand presence but also contributes to the beautification of our community.
The owners of Golden Beauty Bar were presented with the grant award, a testament to the impactful programs designed to support local businesses. Through initiatives like the Façade Grant, Mathis EDC continues to encourage revitalization efforts and provide direct assistance to small business owners.
Building a Stronger Mathis Together
Whether it’s through educational events like our Lunch & Learn series or financial assistance programs like the Façade Grant, Mathis EDC is committed to fostering economic development and creating opportunities for local businesses to thrive. We celebrate the hard work and dedication of entrepreneurs in our community and look forward to continuing to support their success.
