Ascentium Capital announced a commitment of $250 million in capital that will benefit national and regional franchisors and franchisees.
 
The franchise industry is highly competitive and franchisors strategically leverage Ascentium’s expertise in franchise financing to drive profit, expansion, reimaging and rebranding initiatives. The delivery of affordable leasing, financing and loan products through the company’s proprietary technology platform sets up franchisees for success, allowing them to finance nearly anything for their locations. “It is rewarding to see the impact of our financing programs drive the growth of franchise concepts nationwide,” comments Senior VP of Strategic Services at Ascentium, Stephen Interlicchio.
