Local Case Study

A Gatineau construction operator needed funds to purchase materials, repair equipment, and manage payroll for several overlapping renovation projects. The company requested about $155,000 to stabilize cash flow while waiting for receivables.
Funding was arranged within a few business days once bank statements, financials, and documents were submitted. The file moved quickly because deposits were stable, projects were confirmed, and the purpose for funds directly supported production.
The financing helped the business complete contracts on time and maintain staffing. Results vary, but organized documentation supported a faster review.
