“OCLF is about people, that’s the difference.”

Sweetening The Deal for Small Business

Mandi Lunan has a do it yourself attitude. It’s part of what attracts her to baking and what led her to create Aunti Loo’s Treats, which specializes in vegan creations. Mandi takes it as a compliment that many of her clients do not share her vegan beliefs. Her rule is delicious first, vegan second. For those who do share her beliefs, or who happen to be allergic to dairy, she takes pride in being able to offer them a tasty alternative.

After years of baking on the side, it became clear that Mandi needed to expand her business. She knew that it was time to get her own shop, but was reluctant to approach the major banks. What Mandi likes about OCLF is the people, “They’re enthusiastic and it was clear that they love what they do. This inspired me to feel good and positive about my own idea.” OCLF worked with Mandi to develop her business plan, before providing her with the financial support she needed to take her business to the next level. OCLF is proud of her success and the role that we were able to play in helping her to achieve her vision.
