Why Florida operators choose us

Most restaurant buyers in Florida run into the same wall: the dealership's finance company turns them down for one reason — time in business, credit profile, age of equipment, prior BK. The bank takes weeks and asks for paperwork that isn't relevant. The deal dies on a technicality, not because the customer can't afford the equipment.

That's our business. We've spent 22 years building programs for the deals other lenders can't fit. Across every credit tier. Strong credit usually gets zero down. Lower credit usually gets a higher down payment. We're flexible enough to handle every scenario.

No one bank beats our flexibility.

What we know about Florida restaurant financing

  • Florida tourism (Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Keys) drives massive year-round restaurant demand — hotels, beachfront resorts, and theme-park-adjacent restaurants buy heavily
  • Cuban and Caribbean cuisine in Miami drives demand for plancha grills, pressure cookers, espresso machines, and specialty equipment
  • Hurricane risk and humidity put a premium on stainless-steel commercial kitchens and high-capacity refrigeration

We work with operators across Florida's major metros — including Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville, and Fort Lauderdale.

We routinely close deals at the major Florida restaurant dealers, including Restaurant Depot (FL), WebstaurantStore, KaTom Restaurant Supply, Tundra Restaurant Supply, and Strategic Equipment — and any other vendor or private seller you choose. Once you're approved with us, you can carry your financing across dealers.

Who we fund in Florida

  • Strong-credit operators who want the convenience of an equipment-finance specialist instead of bank paperwork. App-only, mostly phone and email.
  • Established businesses scaling fleets that need fast underwriting without bank back-and-forth.
  • First-time buyers who can't get past a dealer's captive on time-in-business or down-payment requirements.
  • Operators with prior BK, slow pay, or thin file who need a finance company that will work the deal, not auto-decline.
  • Buyers of used equipment outside captive age and hours limits.
  • Operators who want one financing relationship across many dealers — TAC carries with you. Get approved once, work with any vendor in Florida.

What this looks like in practice

A Miami Cuban-restaurant operator financing a plancha grill, walk-in cooler, and espresso bar package called us after the dealer's finance company declined his application. Three minutes on the phone and we'd identified the program that fit his file. We told him exactly what to expect — what to send, what the down payment range would look like, when he'd have an answer back.

Closed inside a week. Equipment delivered. Operator back to work.

It's rare we send anyone away without an option.

How we structure restaurant deals in Florida

  1. You call us or send the application. Three-minute phone diagnosis or 60-second pre-qual form.
  2. We underwrite your profile — terms based on credit tier, equipment age, time in business, industry, and what's funding today. We're a fishing guide for commercial finance.
  3. We bring real terms. Not "rate starts at" marketing numbers. Down payment, monthly payment, term, and what we'd need to close.
  4. You sign and get insurance, the equipment funds. Direct to the dealer or vendor. DocuSign close in many cases.

From first call to funded equipment, most deals close in a week or less.
