Local economy
What Cheyenne businesses do
State government and F.E. Warren Air Force Base are major employers, supporting contractors, consultants and service providers. Cheyenne's location where Interstate 80 meets Interstate 25 makes it a transportation crossroads, with rail yards, truck stops and distribution centres. Ranching in the surrounding high plains supports equipment dealers, feed stores and veterinarians. Data centres have also located in the area, bringing construction and electrical work. Cheyenne Frontier Days, a large rodeo and western celebration each July, fills the city with visitors. Retail, healthcare and construction round out the economy.
Frontier Days brings a surge of visitors each July, filling hotels, restaurants and shops for a short, intense stretch. Businesses that prepare for that rush need cash for extra staff and inventory weeks in advance. Winter, on the other hand, can be quiet and harsh. Government work provides some stability, but agencies can be slow to pay small vendors.

FAQ
Cheyenne funding questions
Which SBA office serves Cheyenne?
The SBA Wyoming District Office covers the state. Wyoming also has a Small Business Development Center network with advisors who provide free counselling on business planning, cash flow and getting ready to apply for financing.
Can a trucking company in Cheyenne use factoring?
Yes. Factoring is widely used in trucking because it turns delivered-load invoices into cash within days. Compare fees, advance rates, recourse terms and any minimum volume requirements before you sign an agreement.
I have a contract with the state. How can I cover costs before payment?
A line of credit or invoice factoring can bridge the gap between finishing work and receiving payment. Providers will review your contract, the payment schedule and your history completing similar jobs on time.
