Who supports multi-site equipment deployment financing? Direct lenders that can write a master lease: one credit approval that funds equipment at every location on its own schedule, as each site comes online. Commercial Funding Partners structures exactly that — $250K to $100M+ programs for franchises, healthcare groups, manufacturers, and operators rolling equipment across two locations or two hundred, nationwide.
The problem with financing a rollout one site at a time
Site-by-site borrowing means re-applying for every opening: new credit pull, new documents, new timeline risk — and a financing calendar that ends up driving the construction calendar. Vendors quote volume pricing you can’t capture because funding arrives piecemeal. A deployment program deserves deployment financing.
How a master lease structure works
- One approval, many schedules. Credit is underwritten once at the program level. Each location’s equipment funds on its own schedule under the master document — same terms, no re-application.
- Funding follows the rollout plan. Schedules trigger on delivery or acceptance per site, so payments start when equipment earns, not when paperwork clears.
- Mixed equipment, mixed vendors, one program. Kitchens, racking, imaging suites, production cells — multiple vendors invoice into one schedule per site. We’ve run multi-vendor financing across borders at $15M.
- Soft costs ride along. Freight, install, integration, and commissioning per site belong in the site’s schedule.
Who uses this
Franchise systems standardizing equipment packages (we funded $1.3M in manufacturing equipment for a franchise), healthcare groups equipping locations on one platform ($12M across a multi-location infrastructure program), manufacturers cloning a proven production cell, and contractors staging fleets across regional yards.
Why a direct lender matters here
Deployment programs change mid-flight — sites accelerate, swap, or resize. When the lender is the decision-maker, schedule changes are a conversation, not a committee. CFP holds its own credit decisions, funds $250K to $100M+, and builds the program around your rollout calendar.
FAQ
Is there a minimum number of locations? No — master structures make sense from the second site onward.
Do all sites need identical equipment? No. The program standardizes terms; each schedule lists that site’s actual equipment.
Can new locations be added later? Yes — that’s the point. Additional schedules join under the master as the rollout extends.
What does it cost versus single-site deals? Program-level underwriting and vendor volume typically work in your favor; structure sets pricing, so it’s quoted per program.
