Funding that kept pace with the studio

Company: F45 Training Maple
Industry: Fitness and wellness

Problem:
A short-term cash need in an already busy studio. F45 Maple needed funds quickly, and the timing mattered most.

Solution:
Swoop reviewed the options open to the studio and helped put funding in place in just 10 days, then a second facility a few months later as the need arose again.

Results: Funding reached the business quickly both times, and F45 Maple went on to become one of the top performing F45 studios in Ontario.

F45 Training Maple is part of the F45 network, the high-intensity functional training brand with more than 1,600 studios worldwide and over 150 in Canada.

Even a well-run studio hits moments where cash is needed sooner than it is coming in. A piece of equipment fails, a marketing window opens, a quiet month lands between busier ones. What matters in those moments is how fast the funding arrives, and traditional routes are rarely built for that pace.

As F45’s funding partner, Swoop looked across its network of banks and specialist providers, including providers active in franchise finance that are hard for an individual operator to reach directly, and found funding that matched what the studio actually needed. When a further need came up later that year, the second round was quicker again.

Speed mattered as much as the money. As the studio’s owner put it, “Swoop was a good solution, because I was able to access cash that I badly needed, but more importantly I was able to do it quickly.”
