1) SCHEDULE A MEETING

Contact our staff via phone call, email or drop-in to schedule a meeting where you can discuss your business idea, whether it’s for starting up, expanding, or maintaining your venture. The Community Futures North Fraser team will provide guidance and support throughout the application process, culminating in a review by the Loan & Investment  Committee.

    3) ASSESSMENT
