Siouxland Economic Development Corporation, based in Sioux City, Iowa, is a certified development company (CDC) that makes SBA 504 loans. SBA approved 60 of its 504 loans worth $45.0M in FY2021 to FY2025, which places it 102nd of 182 active CDCs by number of approvals.
In FY2025, the latest complete fiscal year, it had 8 approvals totalling $5.4M. FY2026 to 30 Jun 2026 adds 5 more.
The median approval was $618K, against $657K for the 504 program as a whole; 0.0% of its approvals were for $150,000 or less (program: 4.6%).
Its loans went to businesses in 3 states and territories and 23 counties, led by Iowa (95.0%), South Dakota (3.3%) and Nebraska (1.7%). The largest industry group was manufacturing at 28.3% of approvals, and 15.0% of approvals were to franchise businesses.
Of 219 disbursed loans approved in FY2010 to FY2021, SBA records 1 as charged off (0.5%), 122 as paid in full and 96 still outstanding; the 504 program figure for the same approval years is 1.2%, so the rate here is close to it.
Loan status is as recorded by SBA at the data date; charge-off rates are computed on loans approved at least five fiscal years ago. Jobs supported are self-reported estimates from the SBA loan application, which SBA does not review, audit or validate. Loans appear under the lender they are assigned to today, so a lender's figures include loans it took over. Data through 30 Jun 2026.
