Capital for inventory, staffing, build-outs, and the seasonality every retailer knows. Built by a female-led team that understands the underwriting bias you've been navigating.
Ohio's three major metros — Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati — host one of the Midwest's largest women-owned business communities. Whether you're operating in Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati or anywhere across Ohio, we underwrite based on your business's revenue and trajectory — not your zip code, your gender, or who's on your bank statements.
Built for the women who built Ohio's boutique & retail economy.
You're not explaining your business to someone who's never run one. We've walked in your shoes — and we underwrite accordingly.
Repayment that flexes with retail's seasonal swings — heavier in your peak months, lighter during slow weeks.
We fund based on your business's revenue and trajectory. You don't pledge your home, your car, or your future.
Ohio boutique & retail owners face inventory buys timed to seasons you can't control, holiday staffing ramps, and rent that doesn't care about your slow month. Our funding is built for that — fast capital you can deploy for Q4 inventory loads, new store openings, fixtures and build-outs, or surviving a slow shoulder season.
After two banks said no, Lady's First funded my boutique or retail shop expansion in Ohio in 48 hours. They asked about my customers, my margins, my growth plan — not my husband. That alone made me a lifelong client.
