The challenge
Hospitality margins are tight and cash flow swings with the season. Paying for a new kitchen outright can leave a venue short for wages and stock just when it needs them most.
We finance equipment and fit-outs so repayments are spread across the life of the asset, with lenders who understand that a cafe's trading pattern does not look like an office's.

Ways to structure it
The right structure matters as much as the rate
Chattel Mortgage
You own the asset from day one and the lender takes security over it. Often used by GST-registered businesses that want to claim the GST and depreciation.
Finance Lease
The lender owns the asset and you lease it for an agreed term, with a residual at the end. Repayments are generally treated as a business expense.
Low Doc Finance
For established ABN holders whose tax returns are behind or do not reflect current trading. Assessed on BAS, bank statements or an accountant's declaration.
General information only. The best structure depends on your circumstances, so check tax implications with your accountant.

Questions
Hospitality Equipment Finance: common questions
Can you finance second-hand kitchen equipment?
Some lenders will, particularly from established dealers. Private sales of commercial kitchen equipment are harder, and we will tell you upfront.
Can I finance a fit-out for a leased venue?
Yes, although lenders will look at the length of your premises lease. A lease that runs longer than the finance term helps.
We have only been trading for a year. Is that a problem?
Not necessarily. Several lenders consider businesses from 12 months of trading, and sometimes earlier with experienced operators.
