Federal and Provincial Grants, Loans and Capital

Growth capital advisory for established food and agrifood businesses

For owners raising $250K or more. We help you build out a fundable or investable business case that makes strategic and financial sense to lenders and funders. We help you present it, and navigate the process of funder or investor engagement.

Federal and Provincial Grants, Loans and Capital

Most capital conversations start too late.

Most advisors start with "how do we get this funded." We start earlier — by helping you build a business case that's genuinely fundable or investable, then guiding you through the engagement with the right lenders or funders.

  • How much capital is actually needed for the investment you're considering
  • Whether the proposed investment makes commercial sense at this stage
  • What mix of debt, grants, equity and owner capital is appropriate
  • Whether the business can support the resulting obligations
  • How to present the opportunity to lenders and funders
  • Relationships across AAFC, BDC, FCC, EDC, and provincial agriculture programs
What's included

Capital positioning, readiness and access.

Positioning

Business plans & financial projections

Scenario modelling that shows funders exactly how the capital gets deployed and what it returns.

Readiness

Debt-service & capital structure

The right mix of debt, grants, equity and owner capital — sized so the business can actually carry it.

Access

Funder relationships

AAFC, BDC, FCC, EDC, provincial agriculture programs, and other funders who fund food and agrifood businesses.

Who it's for

Established, scaling food SMEs

Built for owners with a proven business who are ready to invest in the next stage — not early-stage founders raising their first round.
