A Slow Time for Small Businesses
Master Mechanic (Grimsby) applied for financing to help their business during difficult times to keep up with their bills, rent and other unexpected costs. Master Mechanic, like many other businesses in Canada have had to deal with a slow down in their business during the pandemic, which has made it challenging to have consistent business and cashflow. The unexpected reality of the current economy on top of the payables that never seem to end has created a challenge for Master Mechanic. Master Mechanic needed a solution to bridge their cash flow in order to make their payments and keep their business growing and that’s where Merchant Growth comes in.
