NZ Wide Hospitality National Brand

3 days. $3 million. A nationwide business growth story.

A nationwide hospitality group with more than 60 stores across New Zealand had built its reputation on consistency, quality and steady growth. After years of success, the owners began looking toward the future, exploring ways to turn business profitability into long-term wealth.

Their accountant suggested residential property investment as the next step. With turnover exceeding $50 million, the group had strong financials, but its structure was complex, with more than 60 sets of accounts spread across multiple entities. For most lenders, assessing this setup would take weeks.

Finance Link already knew the business well. Having supported their growth and expansion over several years, the team understood their operations, financial structure and goals. When the opportunity came to invest, Finance Link worked directly with their existing bank to fast-track approval.

Within three business days, the business had a $3 million loan approved, a turnaround almost unheard of in commercial lending.

They have since purchased their first investment property and secured approval for a second, setting a foundation for long-term stability and continued growth.

This story highlights the power of strong relationships and financial understanding. When your finance partner truly knows your business, progress can happen faster than you think.
