What we have to offer

We also make referrals to other organizations which assist immigrants and refugees to overcome non-business challenges

Access to Capital

Commercial banks don’t lend to start-ups, but non-profit lenders do. We direct you to friendly lenders as well as help you succeed with your loan application.

Help writing business plans

A business plan has you think through everything you need for your startup or expansion to prosper. They’re also required for most forms of financing. International Hartford works with you to write yours.

Financial counseling

Getting the green light for a loan requires good financial record-keeping, a decent credit score, and being up to date on taxes. International Hartford helps clear up blemishes

Help with market research

How do you know consumers will buy what you plan to sell? Market research gives you answers, and how to handle your competition. International Hartford guides this analysis.

Legal organization

Any business venture means risk, but you don’t want a wrong move to get you in hot water. Legal protections can safeguard personal assets.

registration in business classes

Learn how to manage your business, apply financial accounting methods, and market it to consumers. We enroll you in the right short classes, usually free, to learn these skills.
