Enco, a powder coating business in Perry County, gains a 150000 operating loan and restructures debt into a five year plan with monthly payments starting in 30 days. The city has extended prior loan terms as renovation and utility upgrades ran high and delayed startup. The company, owned by Gary Wallace, currently employs four and expects growth to about 20 in the near term. Struck notes officials anticipate the operation starting within weeks and a further 20000 revolving loan may be sought from the Perry County Board next week.
