The equipment need
The venue had paid cash for all the kitchen and bar equipment needed to open its terrace.
This self-financing had seriously depleted available cash just before a season that instead required inventory and hiring.
Management wanted to know which documents were needed to support an application on equipment already paid for and installed.
- Stainless steel furniture and worktops
- Refrigerated back bars
- Commercial dishwashers
- Equipped cocktail station
The support described in the project
Leaseworld arranged a sale-leaseback: equipment already paid for is bought by the finance company and then leased back to the venue.
The application was reviewed on the basis of the paid equipment invoices, their purchase dates and the company's latest annual accounts.
The financed scope covers the stainless steel furniture, refrigerated back bars, commercial dishwashers and cocktail station, combined into a single contract.
Operations were never interrupted: the equipment stayed in place and in use throughout the transaction.
The reported operational outcome
The venue recovered cash equivalent to what it had spent, redeployed into inventory and seasonal staff.
The outlay became an even monthly lease payment.
The transaction did not use any bank credit line, as the security rested on the equipment itself.
The list of required documents was provided from the first conversation, so the review was completed without back-and-forth.
