Common Uses for Restaurant Capital

Food and labor each take about 33 cents of every sales dollar, and rent, utilities, supplies and repairs take about 29 more. One slow month or one broken walk-in can wipe out a quarter's margin. (National Restaurant Association)

Cover the slow season before sales pick back up.

Replace or upgrade kitchen equipment when it fails.

Make payroll when you staff up for a busy season.

Open a second location or add seating.

Stock up on food and supplies ahead of demand.

Refresh your dining space or kitchen layout.

Thanks to Zippi, I was able to open a second location. They believed in my vision and gave me the capital to make it happen. Their support was more than financial—it felt like having a real partner.
