In taking on the legacy of an estab-
lished business with nearly a century
of history in a part of the state that can
be skeptical of change, Brandon had
the challenge of preserving that legacy
while charting his own path. However,
with the financing provided by the
SBA's loan programs he was able to
secure the financial health of the busi-
ness and focus on building the rela-
tionships that would help him grow
the business and become recognized as
part of the community despite being
from away himself.
