Restaurant Equipment Financing for Dealers

Why financing

Restaurants open on borrowed time and thin cash — financing gets them equipped sooner

A new restaurant pours cash into lease, build-out, and inventory before it serves a single cover. A full kitchen of $80,000 in equipment can be the difference between opening on schedule and stalling. Financing lets operators get the equipment now and pay as the restaurant earns — and lets your rep close the full package instead of watching the order get cut down to fit a budget.

1

Sell the full kitchen, not a trimmed list

When a build-out is a lump sum, operators cut corners. As a monthly payment, the full package — range, refrigeration, dishwasher, hood — stays in the deal. Show the number before they start trimming.

2

Send the application in one click

When the operator is ready, your rep sends a financing application link from the HubSpot deal or your website. The customer applies through BNC Finance — no leaving the deal, no manual paperwork.

3

Spread cost across the ramp-up

New restaurants take months to hit steady covers. Terms from 24 to 60 months let operators align equipment payments with revenue as the business ramps, instead of one painful pre-opening hit.

Who buys from restaurant equipment dealers

Your buyers are operators making a capital bet on a kitchen

From first-time owners to multi-unit franchises, restaurant buyers make equipment decisions under tight cash and tight timelines. Financing is how they get equipped without burning their reserve.

🍽️

New restaurant openings

First-time and independent operators outfitting a full kitchen. Financing covers the build-out so opening cash goes to lease, staff, and inventory. Typical deals: $30,000–$150,000.

🍔

Franchise build-outs

Franchisees meeting brand equipment specs across new locations — financing standardizes the package and preserves capital for the next unit.

👻

Ghost & cloud kitchens

Delivery-only operators equipping multiple stations fast — financing lets them scale square footage and stations without a huge upfront outlay.

🥐

Bakeries & cafes

Ovens, proofers, espresso systems, and refrigeration for cafes and bakeries where a single piece of equipment can be a five-figure decision.

🍸

Bars & breweries

Refrigeration, draft systems, glasswashers, and prep equipment for bars, taprooms, and breweries financing fit-outs and expansions.

🚚

Catering & food trucks

Caterers and mobile operators financing cooking, holding, and refrigeration equipment that pays for itself across events and routes.
