Revolving Line of Credit

for food and beverage processors

Financing Your Business with a Revolving Line of Credit

 

Craft3 knows that local food and beverage processors are vitally important to a thriving regional economy. We also understand that you need flexible capital to take advantage of opportunities and act on good ideas. 

Our lending team has deep experience working with and financing food and beverage businesses. We take the time to get to know you and make sure we understand the opportunity, the risks, and how you’ll repay the loan.   

As a non-profit, mission-driven lender, we’re different. We specialize in working with businesses that can’t access traditional bank financing. And we understand that many capable entrepreneurs with strong businesses lack the credit, equity and/or collateral needed to access conventional financing.

Flexible capital to get you where you want to go

With a Craft3 revolving line of credit you have access to the capital you need, when you need it. This means you can respond to opportunities as they arise.
