Questions Restaurant owners ask us

Can I finance used equipment?

Yes. Both new and used equipment qualify. Equipment up to 20 years old may be eligible — age and condition are reviewed by a specialist.

I own equipment outright. Can I cash out against it?

If you own titled equipment with no existing lien, you may be able to access up to approximately 50% of its value as working capital — subject to underwriting review. A specialist will confirm.

How fast can I get funded?

Same-day decisions are available for qualified applicants. Most businesses receive funds within 24–48 hours of approval.

What credit score do I need?

We accept scores from 500. Monthly revenue and time in business are the primary qualifiers.

Do I need collateral beyond the equipment itself?

Most programs use the financed equipment as primary collateral. A specialist will confirm terms for your situation.

Business Climate in Minnesota

Minnesota has a more regulated business environment, but offers strong market demand and infrastructure, with approximately 560,000 small businesses operating statewide. The state economy is driven by healthcare, finance, food processing, and more. Minnesota hosts 16 Fortune 500 companies and has a highly educated workforce. For restaurant owners, this means a sizable local customer base and an established ecosystem of suppliers, workforce, and support services.

Restaurant Industry in Minnesota

The restaurant sector is rebounding strongly, with consumer dining spending growing year-over-year despite labor cost pressures. In Minnesota, restaurant businesses must comply with health department permits, food handler certifications, and liquor licenses. Most restaurant operators use funding to cover payroll gaps, purchase seasonal inventory, fund kitchen renovations, and bridge slow-season cash flow. Whether you are located in Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rochester, Bloomington, or anywhere else in Minnesota, SMB Capital Funding provides equipment financing designed specifically for restaurant businesses.

Funding Landscape in Minnesota

Minnesota sees $3.0 billion in SBA-backed lending annually, with an average small business loan size around $210,000. Traditional bank approval rates hover near 52%, which is why many restaurant owners turn to direct lenders like SMB Capital Funding — where approval is based on revenue rather than credit score alone.
