F&B has high fit-out and equipment costs, thin margins and daily cash sales, so equipment financing, sales-linked financing and community funding often fit.
Best-fit financing, in order

Leasing & asset financing
Why: Kitchen equipment and vehicles can be financed against the asset.
- 2
Revenue & cash-flow financing
Why: Card and QR sales data can support financing that flexes with footfall.
- 3
Government-backed loans & guarantees

Equity crowdfunding (ECF)
Why: Brands planning multiple outlets can invite fans and customers to invest.
