CAPC Capital helps franchise owners, entrepreneurs, and growing businesses access the right capital โ government-backed programs, institutional lenders, asset finance, and everything in between. We don't work for banks. We work for you.
Whether you're investing in your first franchise location, expanding an existing operation, or refinancing for better terms โ we have the right structure and the lender relationships to make it happen.
CSBFP and BDC programs exist to help Canadian businesses grow. We handle your eligibility assessment, documentation, and full lender submission โ with a 95%+ approval rate on CSBFP applications.
Explore โCash flow gaps can derail even strong businesses. We structure revolving lines of credit tailored to your operating cycle, revenue profile, and seasonal needs.
Explore โOur CPA-prepared business plans include three-year financial projections, market analysis, and a structured funding request โ packaged so lenders can move faster and approve with confidence.
Explore โNeed new equipment, vehicles, or leasehold improvements without draining your operating capital? We structure asset and equipment financing that keeps your cash flow intact.
Explore โWe understand franchise models at a level other advisors don't. From franchise fee financing to multi-unit expansion capital โ we know what franchisors require and what lenders want to see.
Explore โGrowing businesses need capital that scales with them. We advise on commercial term loans, acquisition financing, working capital, and real estate โ structured for your timeline and goals.
Explore โMost business owners take whatever their bank offers. They don't know what else is available โ and don't have time to figure it out. Our team has sat on both sides of the desk. We know how credit decisions actually get made, where there's room to negotiate, and how to position your application to turn "maybe" into "yes."
Start the ConversationRob and the CAPC Capital team got us approved for a CSBFP loan when our bank had already said no. They knew exactly how to position the application and got us funded within 6 weeks. I can't recommend them enough.
The business plan they prepared was unlike anything I'd seen โ it was genuinely bank-ready. The projections were defensible, the narrative was compelling, and we had three lenders competing for our deal within two weeks.
What I appreciated most was that they didn't just get us the money โ they made sure we understood the structure, the covenants, and exactly how to service the debt while growing. Real advisory, not just paperwork.
Every business has a different story, different timing, and different lenders. We navigate the full Canadian financing landscape on your behalf โ and get lenders competing for your deal.
Discuss Your Financing NeedsPrograms like the Canada Small Business Financing Program (CSBFP) and the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) exist to help businesses grow โ but the paperwork, eligibility rules, and documentation requirements can bury you before you ever get to a lender.
We've helped clients achieve a 95%+ CSBFP approval rate because we understand exactly what lenders need to see, how to present your financials, and how to structure the request to maximize approval probability.

Talk to a Franchise Capital SpecialistMost financing advisors treat a franchise application like any other small business. We don't. As part of the CAPC ecosystem and the exclusive Canadian partner of dt group โ the UK's leading franchise accounting firm โ we understand franchise unit economics, FDD structures, royalty obligations, and what franchise lenders at Canadian banks are specifically looking for.

Request a Business PlanMost business plans fail not because the business idea is bad โ but because the financials aren't defensible, the market analysis is thin, or the funding request isn't structured the way lenders think. Our CPA-prepared plans are built to survive lender scrutiny.
Every plan includes clear market analysis, three-year financial projections with assumptions documented and defensible, and a structured funding request that tells lenders exactly what you need, why you need it, and how you'll service the debt.

Practical guidance on business financing, franchise capital, and funding strategy from our advisory team.
The CSBFP is one of the most powerful tools available to Canadian franchisees โ and most don't use it to its full potential. Here's the inside guide.
Both programs exist to help Canadian businesses grow โ but they serve different needs. Here's how to choose the right one for your situation.
Multi-unit expansion changes the financing equation significantly. Here's what lenders look for when you're growing beyond your first location.
The most common reasons lenders pass on business plans have nothing to do with the quality of the business. They're fixable, if you know what they are.
