Whether you are a well known restaurateur or celebrity chef wanting to expand your empire or a keen foodie wanting to open a bistro; a chain with restaurants in numerous cities or a one-off wine bar; a famous venue wanting to revamp your kitchen and cafeteria or a coffee shop owner needing a refurbishment – or anything in between – we can put together a finance deal that is right for you and your restaurant business.

We have structured numerous deals, ranging from the refurbishment of existing premises to new builds for businesses starting from scratch.  We know the ins and outs – including the most common mistakes made by those with experience in the restaurant world and those setting up for the first time.  (Just so you know, it’s sound equipment – often forgotten when drawing up the budget it’s usually remembered just when the project has run out of cash and, yes, we can arrange finance for that.)

Perhaps you run a national chain of fitness centres and need to finance the most up-to-date equipment so you can compete with your rivals.  Or are you a boutique hotel in need of a refurbish – or to open an additional hotel in another location?  Maybe you are in the leisure centre or golf course business, keen to make sure your clubhouse, function rooms and services meet the expectations of your members.

With experience of financing clients in your industry we will be able to guide you through the finance or leasing options that would best suit your business.

Whether you are a small, local shop or a national chain of stores and whichever sector you are in – books, clothing, drinks, food, furnishings, furniture, health, household goods, pharmacy … you name it, financing the setting up or improvement of retail spaces is complex.  You need not only to get the image right but also to consider customer buying habits, ergonomics, staff services, storage space, health and safety as well as budget for essential equipment, furniture and fittings – long before the till rings for the first time.

Budgeting for capital expenditure needs to be well thought-out and executed; we can help you work out a finance or leasing deal that suits your business needs.
