These Cranford Businesses Got Coronavirus PPP Loans

CRANFORD, NJ — The U.S. Small Business Administration and U.S. Treasury released details this week of the country’s massive Paycheck Protection Program that helped New Jersey businesses affected by the coronavirus pandemic (see list below).

PPP loans have an interest rate of 1 percent and can be fully forgiven if they are used for payroll costs, rent, and other items.

More than 4.9 million loans over $150,000 were made to businesses and nonprofit organizations across the country; the total amount for approved loans over that amount was more than $521 billion.

Around 22,000 businesses in New Jersey were approved for loans greater than $150,000. Loans over $150,000 account for about 925,000 jobs.

Loans to New Jersey businesses ran the gamut and included higher education institutions, private schools, manufacturers, car washes, real estate agent companies and non-profits.

Jenkinson's in Point Pleasant Beach got between $1 million and $2 million. Care Plus NJ in Paramus received between $5 million and $10 million, which helped support 401 jobs, according to the SBA data. The Dwight-Englewood School got between $2 million and $5 million, which helped support 304 jobs. High Grade Beverage in North Brunswick got a loan between $2 million and $ 5 million, which helped support 258 jobs.

Here's the list of Cranford businesses on the overall NJ list, which includes schools, restaurants, and religious congregations.

A number of businesses are now reporting that the list, in certain instances, contains "some big errors," according to CNBC.

The loans are made by lending institutions including banks and credit unions and are guaranteed by the SBA. All PPP loans are subject to review by the SBA and all loans over $2 million are automatically reviewed by the SBA.

“Because a borrower is listed in the data as having a PPP loan does not mean that SBA has determined that the borrower complied with program rules or is eligible to receive a PPP loan and loan forgiveness,” the SBA said in a statement about the data release.

The average size of a PPP loan is around $107,000 and 86.5 percent of all loans were for less than $150,000, according to the SBA.
