From coolers to adding delivery vans, an event business or a second shop, Rainstar Capital Group connects florists with commercial financing built around Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and wedding season.
Florists work with highly perishable inventory and huge holiday spikes. Valentine's Day and Mother's Day require massive inventory and staffing on short notice. Between Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and wedding season and the cost of floral coolers and vans, florists need capital that fits the way their business actually works, not a one-size-fits-all loan.
The right financing turns those pressures into opportunities. It lets florists invest in coolers, delivery vans, design stations and POS, keep fresh flowers and supplies on hand and pursue growth such as adding delivery vans, an event business or a second shop, without draining the cash that keeps daily operations running.
We work with retail florists, event florists and floral design studios, and we structure every request around the realities of your cash cycle, from Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and wedding season to the equipment and space you need to grow.
Florists work with the most perishable inventory there is, and we have a lot of respect for that. Valentine's Day and Mother's Day can make the year, and our financing covers the stems, coolers and delivery vans so you're ready for every rush.
