Stock is both your main asset and your main cash drain. Lenders look at how fast inventory turns and whether slow-moving items are building up.
Many retailers earn much of their year in the holiday season and must buy stock months earlier. Show a full year of sales and your buying calendar.
Foot traffic and lease terms shape results. Lenders ask how many years remain on the lease and what the rent is as a share of sales.
Most sales arrive through card processing, so deposit history is a key record. Supplier terms also matter, since they decide how long you can carry stock before paying.
Which option fits depends on your history, your customers and how quickly you need funds. Each lender sets its own requirements and makes its own credit decision.

It varies by lender, amount and term. Short-term working capital is usually more expensive than a bank loan, so we show you the total repayment in dollars for each option before you decide.
Timing depends on the lender, how quickly you send a complete file and approval. Smaller requests can move faster than larger ones. Timing is never guaranteed.
Lenders commonly ask for recent business bank statements, owner identification and a void cheque. Larger requests may need financial statements, receivables aging and CRA balances. Each lender sets its own requirements.
