At BusinessLoans.ie, some of our proudest moments are when we can say we’ve been part of a client’s journey—not just once, but again and again. One recent example is an Irish pizza chain that has gone from strength to strength, and we’ve been there with them every step of the way.
The Beginning: Startup Stage and Merchant Cash Advances
When the business first started, the owners had a creative vision: shipping container pizza restaurants set up in forecourts and beer gardens. It was an exciting concept, but like most start-ups, cash flow was tight. Traditional bank lending wasn’t an option at the time, so we arranged merchant cash advances that gave them the working capital to open those first few locations quickly.
Growth Stage: Reinvesting and Scaling
As sales grew, the business reinvested profits into new sites and steadily built its reputation. Each time they needed an injection of funds—whether for stock, fit-outs, or expansion—we were able to step in with tailored finance solutions that matched their circumstances.
Today: A Permanent Home
Fast forward to today, and we’ve just helped them secure their sixth round of finance through us—a three-year term loan to fund the fit-out of a bricks-and-mortar restaurant. It’s a big step up from container units and temporary outdoor kitchens, and it marks their transition into becoming a permanent fixture in the local dining scene.
The Value of Long-Term Partnerships
This deal wasn’t just about the loan. It was about trust built over time. By understanding their journey and business model, we’ve been able to structure finance that makes sense at each stage—from high-flexibility merchant cash advances in the early days to longer-term, lower-cost loans now that the business is established.
Helping Irish Businesses at Every Stage
Every business owner’s journey is different, but the need for the right finance at the right time is universal. Whether you’re just starting out, looking to grow, or ready to make a big investment in the future, BusinessLoans.ie is here to help.
