Business financing referrals · Restaurants

Put your next restaurant purchase into a funding request.

A replacement range, a larger ingredient order and dining-room work affect a restaurant in different ways. Explain which expense you need to cover and when the supplier or contractor expects payment.

Restaurants · funding preparation

Think through the timing of the work

Build the restaurant budget around supplier deadlines, payroll and the days you expect to trade. A full reservation book does not remove the need to check repayment dates against cash actually received.

Request steps

How the referral process works

01

Define the purchase

Connect the requested amount to equipment, stock or another identified business cost.

02

Describe current trading

Provide the industry and operating information asked for, keeping estimates separate from confirmed figures.

03

Finish the application

Read the disclosures, check contact details and complete the mobile verification required for submission.

Ready your information

Put your request details in order

Identify which purchase or cash-flow period the requested amount is intended to support.

  • 01What the funds would cover and when they are needed
  • 02Monthly sales information and time in operation
  • 03Company name, type of business and estimated credit profile
  • 04Contact details for the request and a working mobile

Plans for the funds

Costs to consider when preparing a request

01

Kitchen equipment

A failed refrigerator or an undersized range can disrupt preparation before service begins. Include delivery, installation and any kitchen work needed to put a replacement into use.

02

Ingredient purchasing

Holiday bookings and a menu change can bring larger orders before diners pay. Work from the planned covers and shelf life so the request reflects stock the kitchen can actually use.

03

Dining-room improvements

Seating, lighting and service stations may need attention between trading periods. Separate the contractor bill from the cost of keeping the restaurant operating while work is underway.

Questions about our role

How our referral service operates

How are introductions to providers handled?

We may sell the business and contact details in your application to up to five funding partners for follow-up about financing. Our payment is for the referral rather than a funded outcome, and applying does not incur a fee from this service.

Where do offer conditions come from?

We cannot promise approval, a financing amount or particular terms from an application. Those decisions belong to the provider after its own review.

What determines the time needed for review?

Include the real payment deadline in the request without assuming it will be met. Availability follows the provider’s decision and completion of its requirements.

What should I expect at the verification step?

Before sending your details, check the consent wording for calls, texts and information sharing. The code sent to your mobile is used to confirm access to that number.
