(Leader in SBA Loans Now Serving Long Beach and South Bay)

Do you have a business that you are hoping to expand? One of the nation's fastest growing Small Business Administration (SBA) lenders has opened a Long Beach, Calif. office and is meeting with business owners who employ staffs of fewer than 500 that are exploring avenues for taking their companies to the next level. Excel National Bank, which is headquartered in Beverly Hills, has opened its tenth office in the Shoreline Square building (301 East Ocean Blvd, Suite 550) in downtown Long Beach. According to Senior Vice President and Director of Operations Sally Myers, who is running the new office, opportunities abound for company owners in Long Beach and the surrounding areas.

Excel National Bank has helped a wide range of businesses from motels and gas stations to professional groups (e.g., medical, dental and law practices) expand their operations and realize their true growth potential. Its primary strength is its ability to help clients quickly and efficiently navigate through the complex SBA lending process. "Excel National Bank has earned a sterling reputation for helping business owners take that next step toward achieving their dreams of success by helping them secure SBA loans," said Myers. "In addition, we are available to help clients secure commercial and construction loans, obtain CDs and respond to all of their banking needs." Those interested in meeting with a business development officer or banking expert may do so by calling (562) 216-7713.

In just two years, the bank has rocketed to the 22nd spot in nationwide SBA lending with 228 loans totaling $200 million. With assets of more than $120 million, Excel offers a full range of services including commercial real estate loans, construction loans, business lending and comprehensive retail banking services.
