Horizon Kidz

Growing with Purpose and Partnership

Horizon Kidz is a Christian learning center in Roanoke, Texas, offering early education services for children from infancy through elementary age. With a top-tier 4-star Texas Rising Star rating and a bilingual curriculum, Horizon Kidz is known for its commitment to excellence and community impact. Programs like Playball also support students’ physical and developmental growth.
Founder Heather Williams launched Horizon Kidz out of a passion for childhood development and a desire to serve her local community. While its growth and expansion brought challenges like economic shifts and complex city permitting, support from American National Bank & Trust made a real difference.

“​ American National Bank & Trust was flexible and truly understood our journey. They weren’t just a lender—they were a partner.”

Through American National Bank & Trust’s SBA program, Horizon Kidz received critical guidance and planning support, helping position the business for future expansion across North Texas.
Her advice to fellow business owners?

“Ask questions. The SBA is full of resources and people who want to see you succeed.”

Lonestar Labels

Accelerating Growth Through the Right SBA Partner

At American National Bank & Trust, we believe that small businesses thrive when they have access to not just capital, but the right guidance, speed, and partnership. Lonestar Labels, a North Texas-based label and flexible packaging company, is a perfect example of what can happen when the right support comes at the right time.

Lonestar Labels specializes in high-quality flexographic and digital printing for consumer products — from prime labels and shrink sleeves to pouches and printed films. With growing demand and a commitment to delivering consistent, on-time production, the company faced a familiar challenge: scaling quickly without compromising quality.

That’s when Lonestar turned to American National Bank & Trust’s SBA lending team.

“We were referred to American National Bank & Trust by our landlord, and from the start, the process was completely different than what we’d experienced with other banks. The SBA team at American National Bank & Trust moved quickly, understood our business, and helped us secure the funding we needed — faster than our previous bank could even complete the paperwork.”

With that funding in place, Lonestar was able to invest in new equipment, secure a major new customer, and increase sales by 50%. The speed and efficiency of American National Bank & Trust’s SBA process weren’t just a convenience — they were essential to the company’s ability to seize a growth opportunity when it mattered most.

At American National Bank & Trust, we’re proud to be that partner for Lonestar Labels — and for businesses like yours. Let’s talk about how our SBA lending team can help turn your next opportunity into a success story.

Aqualine, Inc.

Growing with Confidence Through SBA Support

When Dan Floyd saw an underserved niche in the brass products market back in 2006, he launched Aqualine, Inc., supplying irrigation, plumbing, and PVF products exclusively through distributors. As demand grew, so did the challenges, especially around cash flow and facility expansion.
Introduced to American National Bank & Trust through his contractor, Dan connected with our SBA team and found a partner who could help him navigate complex financing.

“David Green and the SBA team guided me through a process I had never fully understood before. Their experience was key.”

When a tornado and a contractor default threatened to derail their construction project, American National Bank & Trust worked side-by-side with Aqualine to keep things on track.
Now, Aqualine is exploring new markets and expansion opportunities, backed by a partner who understands their journey.

What is an SBA Loan?

An SBA loan is a government-backed financial resource that provides small businesses with access to funding for various purposes, from startups and expansions to real estate and working capital.

 We offer both SBA 7(a) and SBA 504 loan programs to fit your various financing needs.

An SBA 7(a) loan is a great option for assisting small business owners in buying equipment, or refinancing. An SBA 504 Loan is for buying fixed assets like real estate with funding shared between the broower, a development company, and a traditional lender. 

Financing your future with customized SBA lending options just got easier with our streamlined SBA loan application process. In just minutes, our SBA loan program experts will provide the insights and tools you need to confidently apply to find the perfect solution for your business aspirations.
