The equipment need

Two partners were carrying a project to create a restaurant under a franchise sign.

The opening required the acquisition of all the kitchen, cold and enclosure equipment required by the concept at one time.

Own funds had to be preserved to cover entry fees, works and the need for start-up working capital.

Carriers needed an upstream numerical simulation to validate their financing plan.

  • Professional kitchen equipment
  • Cold rooms and storage equipment
  • Furniture and room layout
  • Cash and management equipment

The support described in the project

We studied the application from the supplier estimates and the forecast of operations transmitted.

A simulation of lease payments was released prior to the commitment to integrate funding into the overall funding plan.

We have structured a 60-month equipment lease covering all the kitchen and room equipment.

The release was organized in batches, at the pace of supplier deliveries and the progress of the installation.

We have taken into account the specificities of the contractual framework of the franchise in the financing structure.

The reported operational outcome

The restaurant was able to open with complete equipment and in accordance with the specifications of the sign.

The capital contribution was preserved to finance the work and start-up of the holding.

The partners had budgetary visibility over the entire duration of the contract.

Applying the experience to a new project

Use this case to identify the equipment, timing and ownership questions relevant to your own investment. The historical scope and term are specific to the project described. For a new U.S. project, identify the contracting business, installation state, supplier quote and preferred use period; available structures require a separate assessment.
