Nick's Pizza Place has been a popular local pizzeria in downtown Burlington, Vermont for over 15 years. Known for its hearty, homemade pizzas and lively atmosphere, Nick's became a favorite community gathering spot.

When the recession hit in 2008, owner Nick Santos struggled to keep up with food costs as sales declined. He fell behind on payroll, vendor payments, and maintenance for the restaurant's aging oven. The prospect of high-interest loans felt risky.

In 2011, Nick learned about Line of Credit Depot through a local radio ad. He applied and was approved for a $25,000 line of credit tailored to the pizzeria's specific needs. This provided essential working capital to sustain the business.

Nick used the financing to catch up on overdue payments, invest in new menu items, and refresh the restaurant's interior. With this financial cushion, Nick's Pizza Place successfully rode out the rest of the recession.

Today, the beloved pizzeria continues to thrive as a Burlington staple. Nick feels confident knowing he can rely on the Line of Credit Depot financing if ever needed again. He credits their customer-focused approach with saving his restaurant during a challenging period.
