Funding for Brock businesses

Short answer: a Brock business can be funded. Merchant Fund Express reviews Canadian files from Ontario for merchant cash advances, business cash advances and revenue-based financing. Brock is a township of 12,567 residents (2021 Census), grown from 11,642 in 2016.

Locally, construction employs the biggest share of private-sector workers (15.9% of the labour force), and that mix is what a funder reads in the bank statements.

Seasonality and cash flow in Brock

Building activity peaks from spring to late fall. Materials are bought before invoices are paid, and holdbacks delay final payments. Cold months shift Brock work indoors and pause outdoor projects.

Explain a predictable dip when you apply rather than letting the numbers speak alone.

Example: a fruit orchard and farm market in Brock

Sample numbers, CAD

A fruit orchard and farm market in Brock deposits about $34,000 a month, of which roughly $25,500 comes from card sales. It takes a $27,000 advance to replace kitchen or shop equipment at a 1.30 factor rate, so the total to repay is $35,100. With a 9% holdback on card sales, about $2,295 a month goes to the funder and the advance is repaid in roughly 15 months; in a slower month the payment shrinks with sales.
