Cole Taylor Business Capital, a division of Cole Taylor Bank, announced the funding of a $7.5 million facility for Twin City Bagel, Inc., (d/b/a National Choice Bakery). The company is a GFSI certified supplier of bagels across the United States. Proceeds of the facility will be used to refinance the company’s existing debt and to fund ongoing working capital.

The company produces bagels in a range of sizes, varieties and packaging options, and specializes in private label and co-packing bagel programs tailored to each customer’s needs. The two facilities combine to make as many as one million bagels per day.

Cole Taylor Business Capital seeks asset-based lending opportunities in the $5 million to $50 million range and is offering dedicated syndication opportunities of up to $100 million.
