Size Matters!

Larger Loan Amounts, Longer Terms & Big Rewards

You can now borrow up to $1,000,000 with terms up to 36 months to fund your big projects while keeping your costs low. Our average loan amount is over six times larger and repayment terms are more than three times longer than a Merchant Cash Advance. Larger loan amounts mean you can invest in growth opportunities that will make a significant impact to your bottom line, and longer terms mean your payments are manageable and won’t interfere with your cash flow!

The Difference is Insight

Grow Your Profits While Maximizing Cash Flow

Specialty foods are defined as being unique and having a high value. They use the best quality ingredients, and are usually made in small batches. That means it can be expensive to stock inventory or add new product lines to grow your business. Whatever kind of specialty food shop funding you need, ARF Financial provides working capital loans up to $500,000, with flexible repayment terms up to 36 months. ARF also offers a Flex Pay product that allows you to defer part of your loan’s repayment into the future, lowering your payments now to maximize your business’ cash flow.

Seize Your Next Opportunity

ARF Financial, known as the specialty food shop financing experts, can get you the funding you need when you need it to seize opportunities as they arise. Whether it’s to expand your current facility, move into a larger space or open a second location, growth is the key to ongoing success.
