Whether you’re acquiring equipment for your own company or you’re a vendor looking for a financing program that helps your customers buy what you sell, Five West delivers fast, straightforward access to capital. We lay out smart, clear options side by side so you can make the right financing choice for your business.
Five West Financial is a nationwide commercial finance company providing equipment financing, leasing, working capital, SBA financing, and other business funding solutions. We primarily serve established businesses acquiring equipment, expanding operations, and managing capital needs, along with qualified startups led by experienced operators.
Financing a commercial transaction well takes more than sending an application somewhere. It takes understanding the equipment, the cash flow behind the payment, the tax and accounting considerations, and the structures available for the deal. That is the work Five West was built to do: structure financing around the business and the transaction, with access to multiple commercial financing programs rather than a single credit box.
A note from our founder
Every client works directly with an experienced finance professional who understands the transaction and stays accountable from application through funding. That is the standard we hold every deal to.

2
Meet your advisor
You’re matched with one experienced funding professional who understands your industry, takes the time to understand your business, and lays your real options out side by side.

Compare, sign, fund
Pick the structure that fits, sign electronically, and put the capital to work — funding can land in as little as 24–48 hours. Your advisor stays your point of contact after the wire hits.
