BeLeaf:AFC has committed an additional $5.5 million under the expansion of BeLeaf’s facility and holds the entire $26.1 million expanded credit facility. The additional funds will be used to partially finance the acquisition of two dispensaries in Missouri, increasing the borrower’s vertical integration in the state. The terms of the credit facility remain consistent with the original agreement.

Sunburn:AFC has committed an additional $1.8 million under the expansion of Sunburn’s credit facility and holds the entire $36.5 million expanded credit facility. The additional funds will partially finance the borrower’s buildout of two new dispensaries and additional low-cost cultivation capacity in Florida. The terms of the credit facility remain consistent with the original agreement.

“At AFC, we are dedicated to fostering strong, lasting relationships by working together with our borrowers as they grow their businesses. We are excited to initiate a new relationship with Private Company Q, helping them establish a strong foothold in Georgia. Additionally, we are pleased to strengthen our support for BeLeaf and Sunburn, providing additional capital as they expand their operations in key markets. These investments align with our strategy to deploy capital in restricted license states with attractive supply-demand dynamics,” said Daniel Neville, AFC’s Chief Executive Officer.
