What we finance

What we finance in your kitchen

Refrigeration and the cooking line lead — strong collateral means fast approvals, even for newer operators. Then we route the build-out to the right SBA or working-capital program.

RANK 01

Refrigeration & walk-in coolers

$8k–$60k
Essential, expensive, and strong collateral — lenders’ favorite restaurant asset.
RANK 02

Cooking line — ranges, ovens, fryers

$15k–$120k
Core production equipment, almost always financed in a build-out.
RANK 03

Exhaust hoods & ventilation

$10k–$50k
Costly and code-required; financed right along with the line.
RANK 04

Dishwashing & warewashing

$5k–$30k
Essential durable equipment with dependable collateral value.
RANK 05

HVAC

$15k–$80k
Big-ticket and financeable as equipment; install routes to SBA.
RANK 06

POS, furniture & fixtures

$3k–$100k+
POS often leased for tech refresh; FF&E financed as a package.
Why Restaurant operators choose us

The only broker who solves both halves of a build-out

01

Fast approvals on the hard assets

The line, the cooler, and the dishwasher are collateral lenders approve quickly — even for newer operators.

02

SBA wraps the whole project

Build-out, equipment, and working capital combine into one longer-term SBA loan — the workhorse for restaurants.

03

Franchise-approved financing

We plug into franchisor preferred-lender programs for faster, better terms on proven concepts.

04

A straight alternative to cash advances

Before a predatory MCA costs you the business, we show you what honest working capital really costs.

How it works

From application to equipment in three steps

STEP 1

Split the project

We separate what leases fast — the equipment — from what needs an SBA or working-capital package: the build-out.

STEP 2

Package and place

We match each part to the right lender: equipment financing for the assets, SBA for the build-out and opening capital.

STEP 3

Open the doors

Vendors and contractors get paid on schedule, and you open with the kitchen and cash you planned for.

Your challenge, handled

The reasons restaurants get declined — and how we get to yes

Your build-out isn’t collateral a bank can seize
SBA 7(a) or franchise programs fund what an equipment lease can’t.
First location, no business track record
An SBA startup path plus a strong-credit, collateral-first structure.
Tempted by a fast merchant cash advance
We show you what real financing costs — and beat it, before it costs you.
Cash-tight but you own your equipment
Sale-leaseback unlocks working capital without new debt on the build-out.
$2.56M
Section 179 · 2026

Write off the kitchen while SBA carries the build-out

Deduct up to $2.56M of kitchen equipment in 2026 under Section 179 with 100% bonus depreciation — new or used — while an SBA package handles the leasehold improvements equipment lenders won’t.

2026 federal limits. Section 179 is capped by taxable income; bonus depreciation is not. Confirm specifics with your tax advisor.

From an operator like you

“Everyone would finance my ranges and coolers. Nobody would touch the build-out until I found someone who could package the whole thing through SBA. That’s the only reason we opened on schedule.”
