Small Business Month, celebrated in May every year, is an
opportunity to recognize small businesses and the impact they have on our communities
in Ohio and our country.
Small business is the backbone of the U.S. economy. According
to the U.S. Small Business Administration Office, there were 996,693 small
businesses in Ohio in 2022, which accounted for 99.6% of Ohio businesses. These
small businesses employ 2.2 million people, or 44.7% of all Ohio employees.
While May is recognized as Small Business Month, every
month is small business month at Telhio Credit Union. Telhio is the #1 SBA
lender among credit unions in the state of Ohio. We take great pride in this accomplishment
because it's what differentiates us from other financial institutions.
At Telhio Credit Union, we believe that small business is
the key driver of a healthy and thriving local economy. That's why we
specialize in small business lending. This approach is unique from other
financial institutions and credit unions and allows us to personalize our
services to businesses in Columbus, Cincinnati, and Dayton.
The emphasis on small business began when our board identified
the need to increase lending to small businesses. We understand it's vitally important
for small businesses to have capital to grow their business. When small
businesses have the funds to invest in growth, the result is job creation and a
stimulated economy.
This initiative is evident amongst our talented and dedicated
team of Business Lending, Workplace Banking, and Market Sales Managers at
Telhio. Because we're focused on local markets in Columbus, Cincinnati, and
Dayton, we can provide a higher level of service with a deeper knowledge of the
local markets in which we serve.
But don't take our word for it. Listen to local small
business owners who choose to partner with Telhio for their business banking.
