Supporting Small Business through SBDCs

The Fargo & Southeast SBDC program serves the area of Fargo and Southeast Region including the counties of Barnes, Cass, Dickey, Griggs, LaMoure, Ransom, Richland, Sargent, Steele, Stutsman, and Traill.
The SBDC provides high-quality, no-cost business advising to entrepreneurs and small business owners. They offer one-on-one consulting in key areas such as startup assistance, access to capital, business planning, market research, and expansion strategies, helping businesses launch, grow, and succeed in their region.
MBFC appreciates the partnership with the Fargo and Southeast SBDC and their important guidance and resources given to the small business community. The SBDC’s responsive and proactive approach to training and consultation is certainly a great asset to entrepreneurs!
