Business Resource Center Available to Assist Businesses Affected by Flood Damage
CONCORD – In an effort to better determine the level of impact due to this week’s flooding, the New Hampshire Business Resource Center wants to hear from companies which have been adversely affected.
The Center is currently conducting outreach to businesses in areas affected by the flooding as well as to local elected officials and municipalities to determine areas of need. In addition, state regional resource specialists are speaking directly with companies requiring information and assistance.
Businesses with flood related issues are asked to contact the Business Resource Center at 1-800-417-4110. Homeowners with flood related issues are asked to contact the Office of Emergency Management’s Flood Information Hotline at 1-800-458-2407.

Dear NH Business,
I’m writing to you to learn whether your business has been adversely affected by the recent flooding, and, if so, determine how we can help.
The New Hampshire Division of Economic Development, in coordination with local economic development organizations, is currently seeking to determine the number of companies which have been affected as well as the extent of the damage.
To that end, I am asking you to let the Division of Economic Development know if your business has been affected or if you know of other businesses in the area which can use help. In both cases, please call the Division’s toll-free hotline at 1-800-417-4110 or send them an email at lsherman@dred.state.nh.us.
Thanks in advance for your assistance and your willingness to pass on the information that will help the Division of Economic Development to better serve the New Hampshire business community in the days and weeks ahead.
