Funding your Food Business: Fundamentals and Exceptions to Financing

Starting a food business can be daunting in itself. Funding can also be overwhelming and confusing. In this seminar, we will explore how to determine how much money you have and will need, what money is used for and how it functions in your business, and what type of money will best serve your business. We will also cover where and how to get the funds you need for your business.
