A little Friday boost from one of our original Sussex Kitchen members, Maria Boulden, owner of Jam Session Jams. It has been such a joy and privilege to work alongside Maria, get to know her, and watch her business grow from an idea into the incredible success it is today. Seeing local entrepreneurs purse their passions and thrive is exactly why we do what we do.

The Sussex Kitchen Delaware, located in Georgetown, is a collaborative community, providing shared kitchen space combined with business assistance to help aspiring and existing entrepreneurs build great food companies, create jobs, improve healthy food access, and strengthen our regional food economy.

If you are a starting or looking to grow your food business in Delaware we would love to connect and see how we could be a resource and partner for you.

National Small Business Week may be winding down, but we are here to support and help small businesses in Sussex County all year long!

The ExciteSussex Loan Fund is one of those opportunities. This loan fund offers longer loan terms and below market interest rates to help businesses stretch their cash flow and save thousands of dollars with lower monthly payments. Eligible businesses can use the loan for machinery and equipment, real estate acquisition and/or renovation and tenant improvements.

May is National Small Business Month and a great reminder of the important role small businesses play in our communities and economy.

In Delaware, 98% of all businesses are small businesses, employing more than 250,000 people. That’s 57% of our workforce!

Supporting small businesses means supporting local jobs, families, and communities. Whether you shop local, leave a review, or share a post, every action makes a difference.
