Caroline Taylor/Regions Bank

The U.S. Small Business Administration is committed to furthering the growth and development of small businesses. One of the ways it does this is by guaranteeing loans to small businesses made through lending partners nationwide. Regions Bank is both an SBA Preferred Lender and one of America’s most experienced SBA lenders. The SBA does not make loans directly to small businesses. Rather, it sets guidelines for loans, which are made by lending partners nationwide, including banks and economic development organizations. For the SBA(7)a and SBA Express loans, the SBA guarantees a percentage of the loan, minimizing risk to the lending partners and increasing the possibility that small businesses will receive the funds they need. Please contact a Regions banker to discuss qualification criteria, potential fees, and whether an SBA loan can fit your business needs. All loans and lines of credit are subject to credit approval.

John Rivers/4R Restaurant Group and 4Roots Farm

Following a 20-year career in healthcare, John Rivers retired as President of a $1.5 billion company to pursue a lifelong dream of opening a restaurant. In 2009, John created his first concept, 4 Rivers Smokehouse, which quickly became one of the fastest growing restaurants in the Southeast.

Born out of John’s garage, the “barbeque ministry” remains at the heart of the company’s mission to lift up those in need and help build better communities. The culmination of the 4R Foundation’s work, the Orlando based 4Roots Farm will serve as a community campus to inspire revolutionary change in Florida’s food system through education on sustainable and regenerative farming, advancements in agriculture technology, and research in culinary medicine via the launch of the Culinary Health Institute.

Author of The Southern Cowboy Cookbook and graduate of Florida State University College of Business, where he served on the Board of Governors, John has been named one of the Restaurant Industry’s Power 20 Leaders by Restaurant Business & News, “Restaurateur of the Year” by Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association, and Orlando Magazine’s “50 Most Powerful, 15 to Watch”.
