Entrepreneur challenge
Sherlie Georges-Fils could no longer manage her company from home because her business volume was increasing. She needed staff to help her and space to operate her business. She had to rent, furnish and equip an office, but she didn’t have enough working capital to make these investments.
BDC expertise
The Inclusive entrepreneurship loan enabled Sherlie to hire staff and rent office space. She also took advantage of the online course offered by BDC to increase her sales and train her staff.

- Purchased of all materials required for the workspace, including furniture and computer equipment
- Hired two people
