Company Challenge

Consolidated Bank & Trust made significant upgrades and improvements to its main branch facility located in Jackson Ward. The improvements cost the company thousands of dollars. Through a face-to-face visit with a Business First representative from the City of Richmond, Consolidated Bank & Trust learned it qualified for special funding to help offset the cost of its facility upgrades.

Business First Solution

"The Business First program visit was a very professional experience and I was impressed with the speed of the response and reimbursement for our improvements. There wasn’t the red tape people have come to expect. I would recommend Business First-Richmond to other business owners. Learning about the incentives allowed us to make some additional improvements to our property and do more than we would normally be able to do. Our customers have really noticed the difference and it’s put a positive spin on CB&T. Not only have the changes improved the appearance of our building but they’re encouraging others around us to do the same. The program has been of great assistance to us."
