Funding Local Business

Brewhemia is a Cedar Rapids café “that encompasses a focus on quality beverage while embracing the community and neighborhood of New Bohemia”.

Brewhemia realized they required more space and kitchen equipment to continue expanding their services and success. They applied for a revolving loan through ECICOG and received $50,000 to assist in purchasing the historic ZCBJ Hall in New Bohemia District and expanding their kitchen space and capacity.
​
This move allowed them to create 3 new jobs and continuing growing their business!
At Brewhemia you will find an intimate café featuring amazing coffee, breakfast and lunch, plus a full bar featuring a variety of local craft beers, wine and spirits.
