The neighbourhood grocery store is one of the most essential businesses. They’re frequently visited, have a high proclivity for repeat business, and have the ability to entice customers with exotic and fresh goods. If you’re an owner of a grocery store business you’re probably looking at finance options. Learn how our capital solutions can help your business grow and succeed.
Grocery stores are in no short supply in Canada. And with people becoming increasingly cognizant of what they are consuming, it is causing significant disruption in the food industry. Grocery store businesses are finding themselves having to pay more for their products and seeing a rise in fees. In order to appease the public demand for more unique, organic, and ethically-sourced products, you can leverage a grocery store business loan.
While being able to provide people with healthy food is wonderful, it has proven to be much more costly to stock. That’s why it's important to have access to consistent funding. Driven offers grocery store business loans of up to $300,000 with a variety of flexible payment options, providing entrepreneurs with the capital they need to build the best possible grocery experience. Our application process is quick and easy, allowing you to access the funding you require in as little as 24 hours.
As you know all too well, you can’t run a successful grocery store business without making sure you have sufficient inventory. Stay ahead of demand by investing in a longer lead of inventory and working with fulfillment partners to manage it. Don’t make your customers wait for you, be prepared to meet their needs at any given moment. You’ll also need to consider the financial burden of food going bad if it isn’t sold.
In addition to stocking your inventory, you’ll also need the proper equipment to store, preserve, and display your goods. This might include industrial sized fridges and freezers, heating systems, hydration systems, and display shelving. Grocery store equipment doesn’t come without a hefty price tag. Use a grocery store business loan to deck out your business with all of the necessary equipment.
Grocery store businesses require a large number of staff to operate. Leveraging a grocery store business loan enables you to fulfill your payroll commitments while freeing up operating capital for initiatives and potential growth prospects. By giving yourself this freedom, you can expand your business and boost your cash flow health, giving you a stronger position in the long run.
