Overview

Restaurants capital, Delaware execution.

Restaurants live or die on cash flow. Summit places working capital with lenders that underwrite credit card and POS deposit volume — not just credit scores — and finances kitchen equipment, build-outs, and acquisitions through asset-backed structures designed for the hospitality cycle.

In Delaware, restaurants operators concentrated in Wilmington and Dover face the same working-capital, equipment, and growth-financing demands seen across our active DE book. Summit underwrites against bank deposits, AR, equipment value, and contract backlog — not just tax returns.
