GE Capital, Franchise Finance provided $2.8 million in financing to Four M Capital LLC, a Buffalo Wild Wings Bar and Grill franchisee. The funds will be used for two new store openings and to supplement an $8.7 million financing in 2010, which was used for new unit development and refinancing. Funding was provided through GE Capital, Franchise Finance’s bank affiliate, GE Capital Financial Inc.

"This marks our third and fourth new restaurant financing with GE Capital in the past two years,” said Jim Bitzonis, president and CEO, Four M Capital. “GE offers an attractive development line of credit along with a flexible structure that suits our growth financing needs."

Four M Capital, based in Valhalla, N.Y., will own and operate 11 Buffalo Wild Wings units by the end of 2011, spanning across New York and Connecticut.

There are more than 800 Buffalo Wild Wings locations across 45 states and in two countries.
