Whether you run a supplement store, health food shop, or wellness product retailer, our funding is built for the realities of South African health and wellness retail.
Funding designed for health and wellness product retailers
Running a health and wellness retail business means managing specialist stock, supplier relationships, and a health-conscious customer base, whether you sell supplements, health foods, or wellness products. Cash flow gaps can cost you a bulk order discount or leave your shelves short when demand is highest.
Health and wellness retail finance gives you fast access to working capital without the red tape of a traditional bank loan. It's unsecured, meaning no collateral is required, and repayments are structured around your trading turnover.
Since 2013, Merchant Capital has invested more than R17 billion into nearly 70,000 South African businesses, including supplement stores, health food shops, and wellness product retailers. We understand the specialist stock and cash flow pressures of this sector.
We have extensive experience working with trusted health and wellness retail franchises and buying groups across South Africa, giving you the confidence to grow with a lender who knows your industry.
We partner with respected names in the South African financial sector, giving you the confidence to grow with trusted support.
