Sandland Credit, a small-business funding broker in Grand Junction, CO, works with Mesa County businesses in sectors its lending partners fund, including construction, restaurants, medical and dental practices, and retail and wholesale. Each industry page combines Census County Business Patterns data with the funding types that fit that sector's cash cycle. Lending partners make every credit decision.
Mesa County's business mix
Mesa County had 4,827 employer establishments in 2023. Construction had the most, at 622, followed by retail trade (587), health care and social assistance (535), professional, scientific and technical services (523) and other services (464). By payroll the order changes: health care and social assistance paid about $849.9 million in 2023, the largest of any sector (U.S. Census Bureau, County Business Patterns 2023).
Retailers and wholesalers
Retail trade had 587 employer establishments in Mesa County in 2023 and wholesale trade 218 (County Business Patterns 2023). Both tie up cash in stock before it sells, which is what inventory financing is for. A separate retail page is planned once it can add something the inventory page does not already cover.
Outside these sectors
Lending partners fund many other kinds of businesses as well. If yours is not listed, start with the comparison of six funding types, or call (970) 238-2048 and describe the business. The local business picture has more Census data for the area.
