poppyBusiness loans for Adelaide businesses
Adelaide has a strong base of health services, food and wine, manufacturing and defence-related businesses, with many family-run and owner-operated firms. Those businesses often grow by adding capacity: another treatment room, another practitioner or another piece of equipment. A short-term loan lets you fund that capacity now and repay it from the new income.
We’re an online lender, so there’s no branch to visit. You apply online, connect your bank data securely and sign your loan agreement online, from anywhere in Adelaide and South Australia.
What Adelaide businesses borrow for
- Health and allied health: fit-outs, equipment and new practitioners. See medical practice loans.
- Food, wine and hospitality: equipment and seasonal stock. See café and restaurant loans.
- Manufacturing and trades: machinery and materials. See equipment loans.
- Retail: stock and store fit-outs. See retail business loans.
