Five Scotland County, NC Trade Pages and What They Draw On

Five trades, each with county counts and uses.

  • Retail Trade, the Largest Scotland County, NC Sector by Establishment Count

    Retail trade had more employer establishments than any other sector in Scotland County, NC in 2023: 133 of 624, with 1,573 paid employees and about $40.8 million in annual payroll (County Business Patterns). Inside it, gasoline stations numbered 25, all other general merchandise stores 17, building material and garden equipment and supplies dealers 13, grocery stores 12 and clothing and clothing accessories stores 11. Business loans for retail cover stock, fixtures and registers, and the holiday borrowing article works through a pre-season order.

  • Construction, Restaurants and Physician Practices With Their Own Laurinburg, NC Pages

    Restaurants and other eating places were the largest four-digit industry by employer establishments in Scotland County, NC in 2023, with 48 (CBP); limited-service restaurants accounted for 31 and full-service restaurants for 14. Offices of physicians numbered 30. Construction counted 32 employers, 23 of them specialty trade contractors. Each has a page: restaurant loans, medical practice loans and construction business loans, each with equipment, payroll and purchase questions for that trade.

  • Fuel Stations and Convenience Stores: Two Census Codes on One Laurinburg, NC Page

    Gasoline stations numbered 25 employer establishments in Scotland County, NC in 2023, 24 of them stations with convenience stores, and convenience stores without fuel numbered 6 (CBP). Those are two Census codes, which together come to 31 (our sum). Both buy coolers, shelving and registers and carry fast-moving stock, so they share one page on gas station and convenience store loans, which also covers dispensers, canopies and buying a station.

Scotland County, NC Trades Covered Here Without Their Own Page

Notes on sectors without a page of their own.

  • Salons, Dentists, Auto Shops and Child Care: Notes in This Scotland County, NC Hub

    Some trades are covered here because the county has too few employers in them for a page of their own. Beauty salons numbered 3 employer establishments in 2023 and offices of dentists 4 (CBP); Nonemployer Statistics counted 160 beauty salons without paid employees in 2024, a separate program. Automotive repair and maintenance shops numbered 14, and 10 of them had fewer than five employees. Child day care services numbered 10, with 161 paid employees. All of them fund equipment, build-outs and payroll, and equipment financing or a working capital loan fits many of those needs.

  • Home Health, Other Practitioners and Outpatient Centers in Scotland County, NC

    Offices of other health practitioners, such as chiropractors, therapists and optometrists, numbered 17 employer establishments in Scotland County, NC in 2023, with 229 paid employees. Outpatient care centers numbered 11, and home health care services numbered 7 with 135 paid employees of their own (CBP). The NC Division of Health Service Regulation licenses home care agencies, and a lender may ask about that license; the NC home care license guide covers where it sits in a funding request. Their equipment and payroll questions follow the medical practice page.

  • Hotels, Landscapers, Grocers and Building Supply Dealers in Scotland County, NC

    Traveler accommodation numbered 8 employer establishments in Scotland County, NC in 2023, all of them hotels and motels, with 116 paid employees. Landscaping services numbered 8, building material and garden equipment and supplies dealers 13, and grocery stores 12, including 6 convenience stores (CBP). Hotels fund room refreshes and laundry equipment, landscapers fund mowers and trailers, and grocers fund coolers and stock. Term loans, equipment financing and inventory financing cover those uses.

  • Manufacturing Payroll and Trade Contractors in Scotland County, NC

    Manufacturing had 33 employer establishments in Scotland County, NC in 2023 but 2,280 paid employees and about $121.5 million in annual payroll, second only to health care on both measures (CBP). Electrical contractors numbered 9 and plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors 5. Trade contractors fund vans, tools and parts and carry payroll while general contractors hold retainage; their questions are close to those on the construction page and the line of credit page.

How the Scotland County, NC Industry Figures Were Gathered

Which program counted what, and when.

  • Why Some Scotland County, NC Sectors Have No Page of Their Own Yet

    The employer figures here are County Business Patterns 2023 (NAICS 2017) for the county and ZIP Business Patterns 2023 for ZIP 28352; both count only establishments with a payroll. No-payroll businesses appear in Nonemployer Statistics 2024 (NAICS 2022), a different program and year, so this site keeps those counts apart. A trade gets its own page when the county has at least 25 employers at its own code and there is search interest in funding for it; other trades are covered in these notes, and any operating business outside trucking and agriculture can send a request.

Questions Worth Asking on Terms

Can I get a business loan with my LLC and EIN?

Sometimes, but each funding partner decides. An LLC and an EIN set up the business as its own entity, and a partner usually also reviews how long it has operated, its revenue and bank statements, and may look at the owner. Describe the trade, the purchase and the amount in the request, and the partner says what else it needs.
