Florida State Business Resources

When talking about Florida, you would often think about popular tourist destinations such as Disney World, the Key West, and many of Miami's famous beaches. However, it is also a sought-after destination for business owners and entrepreneurs. Experts believe that it is a great place to start your business or to expand in.

First and foremost, there are plenty of resources available for potential business owners. The government offers commercial loans and other types of funding assistance for businesses. The thriving tourism environment is also a good sign for any businesses. With a constant influx of people, you have the potential to boost sales.

Another major incentive to build a business in Florida is the low tax burden. The Sunshine Tax places low tax on business owners since you won't have to pay for personal income tax. Existing businesses only pay 5.5% on corporate income tax.

The entrepreneurial landscape in Florida is also excellent. It is the fourth largest economy in the US with small businesses comprising over 99% of all businesses that operate in the state. This is a promising outlook for those who would like to open a business knowing that there are opportunities available and that you could potentially succeed.
