Kansas Existing Industry Expansion Program (KEIEP)
Contact: Shane Coelho, Sr. Management Analyst 316-722-7561
The Kansas Existing Industry Expansion Program (KEIEP) provides loans to assist in financing the expansion of small businesses in Kansas. KEIEP awards are performance-based and dependent upon the project's size. Expansions by existing Kansas commercial enterprises are eligible for awards. Projects that are working on the retention of small-sized to medium-sized companies in Kansas are also eligible under the program. The conditions and guidelines for KEIEP are similar to the KEOIF program, with exceptions relating to the size of the company. Companies wishing to access funds are required to commit to specific employment and payroll levels as a prerequisite for an award.
