The equipment need
The owner asked Leaseworld to equip the restaurant's kitchen with a complete set of commercial equipment.
Buying all the cooking, refrigeration and dishwashing stations outright would have strained cash at a level incompatible with the launch.
The need was for equipment delivered and installed quickly, without tying up the capital required for working capital.
The restaurant's profitability depended directly on the kitchen going into service on the announced schedule.
- Commercial cooking ranges and stoves
- Combi oven and blast chiller
- Stainless steel furniture and refrigerated prep tables
- Hood-type dishwasher and dishwashing area
The support described in the project
Leaseworld structured a finance lease covering all of the kitchen equipment, including cooking, refrigeration and dishwashing.
The term was aligned with the actual service life of the commercial equipment.
Leaseworld included installation and commissioning costs in the contract to avoid any additional outlay.
The application was reviewed with a financial partner familiar with the restaurant industry and its start-up cycles.
The reported operational outcome
The restaurant was equipped without a significant down payment and kept its cash for inventory and start-up costs.
The lease payments were matched to the revenue generated by the kitchen.
The purchase option at the end of the contract leaves the owner free to buy the equipment or renew it.
The kitchen went into service on the schedule the operator had planned.
