Business Financing Options for Canadian Companies

From term loans to receivables financing — we identify the right product, prepare the file, and connect you with the right lender.

Business Loans

Term Loans for Canadian Businesses

A business loan provides a lump sum of capital repaid over a defined term — typically 1 to 5 years. It's the most straightforward form of business financing, but also one where the application matters most. Lenders assess not just your numbers, but how clearly you present them and how convincingly you've explained what the money will do.

Abria helps you structure the ask, prepare the complete documentation package, and approach the right lender for your profile — bank, credit union, or alternative. The difference between an approval and a decline is often the file.

What term loans are commonly used for:

  • Business acquisition or ownership transition
  • Expansion — new location, capacity, or market entry
  • Debt consolidation and refinancing existing obligations
  • Major capital expenditures not suited to equipment financing
  • Working capital for growth-stage businesses
Working Capital

Working Capital — When Your Cash Cycle Gets Ahead of You

Cash flow gaps are one of the most common reasons healthy businesses run into trouble. A seasonal slowdown, a large receivable sitting unpaid, or an unexpected expense can create a gap between what's owed and what's in the account. Working capital financing fills that gap without putting the long-term health of the business at risk.

We evaluate short-term loan structures, merchant cash advances, and revolving facilities to find the product that fits your cash cycle — not just the most available option.

Lines of Credit

Flexible Capital You Control

A business line of credit gives you access to a pre-approved amount you can draw from as needed and repay as cash comes in. Unlike a term loan, you only pay interest on what you've drawn. It's the right tool for businesses with recurring cash flow variability — not a single capital need.

Qualifying for a line of credit requires a credible business profile, clean documentation, and the right lender relationship. Abria prepares the application and matches you with the lender most likely to extend the facility you actually need.

Equipment Financing

Finance What Your Business Runs On

Equipment is often both essential and expensive. Whether it's a piece of heavy machinery, a commercial vehicle, a medical device, or a kitchen buildout — financing it correctly means preserving working capital while securing the asset your operation depends on.

Equipment financing is typically structured around the asset itself, which means the credit criteria differ from unsecured lending. Abria works with construction, transportation, manufacturing, food service, healthcare, and other equipment-heavy industries to identify the right lender and structure the deal properly.

Invoice & Receivables Financing

Your Outstanding Invoices Are an Asset

If your business carries significant accounts receivable, you may be sitting on capital you haven't unlocked. Invoice financing and factoring arrangements allow you to convert outstanding invoices into immediate working capital — rather than waiting 30, 60, or 90 days for payment.

This is particularly valuable for businesses in construction, transportation, staffing, and B2B services where payment terms are long but operating costs are continuous. Abria helps you understand the available structures — factoring, invoice discounting, and AR-based revolving facilities — and connects you with the right program for your receivables profile.

Alternative & Commercial Lending

When Traditional Financing Doesn't Fit

Banks have rigid criteria. Many solid, revenue-generating businesses don't fit the mold — and that's not a reflection of the business's quality. It's a reflection of the bank's appetite. Alternative lenders, private lenders, and non-bank institutions apply different criteria, move faster, and can work with business profiles that traditional banks routinely decline.

Abria also handles larger commercial financing requirements — multi-property real estate operations, significant capital expenditures, and larger-scale expansion financing where the structure and approach differ substantially from standard SME lending.
