Small business retailers

The experience you need when it comes to retail businesses

We offer industry-leading solutions that provide valuable assistance to all Business Banking Members, including retail storefronts and online businesses.

Retail business highlights

Operating company

Meridian provided a loan through our Commercial Owner Occupied Lending program at 80% loan to value so that a Member could inject the funds back into their operating company.

New business venture

We arranged for financing of $250K and provided day-to-day banking operations for a new business venture that has since grown to include three locations across the Niagara region.
