Canadian hospitality funding partner Silver Chef has partnered with Restaurants Canada to offer equipment financing for restaurants.
As part of the partnership, Restaurants Canada’s members will receive funding to expand their businesses.
The deal will help restaurant owners and operators to purchase foodservice equipment using the funding without investing their own capital. However, they will need to invest in buying equipment such as single espresso machines and custom-designed cooking systems.
Silver Chef Canada president Robert Phelps said: “Silver Chef has $500m to invest in Canadian hospitality businesses and we’re proud to be able to share that with the members of Restaurants Canada. Together we can help hospitality businesses grow and the industry as a whole thrive.”
