    Pay cash or use Fitout Finance

    Using appropriately structured finance to fitout your restaurant or cafe:

    • Spreads the cost over time
    • Preserves precious cashflow

    While it’s tempting to fund a fitout from cash resources, this can be a recipe for problems down the track.

    The reason being, that once installed, it can be difficult to obtain finance against the assets/investment at a later date.
