Anyone with experience in the fire protection industry?
Anyone with experience in the fire protection industry (largely sprinkler systems) and willing to chat? Also anyone with market research into the space would be super beneficial.

Hi Ben - nice to meet you.
I recently wrapped up a market research project focused on the fire protection services space, especially the compliance-driven side like commercial kitchen fire suppression and inspection work.
It’s a bit different from traditional sprinkler contracting, but it follows the same logic - safety codes and NFPA standards create steady, recurring demand. Every commercial kitchen - whether in a restaurant, hospital, school, or senior living facility - must have a suppression system installed as part of its build-out. Those systems also require ongoing inspections, maintenance, and hood cleanings to stay compliant, which drives dependable, recurring revenue for service providers.
It's always important to work with someone that knows how to convey the viability and strengths of a business. We have a lot experience financing various companies via the SBA. If you ever need help talking through a deal, I am happy to help. We work with all the major SBA lenders. The bank pays us after your loan closes, so this is a 100% free service for you. You can email me directly at redacted or schedule a meeting with me: redacted. Look forward to chatting!
