Petal Pushers has been a cherished local florist in Annapolis, Maryland for over 30 years. Known for lovely floral arrangements and excellent customer service, Petal Pushers became the trusted florist for countless events and occasions.

When the recession hit in 2008, owner Mary Santos struggled as corporate accounts and weddings declined. She fell behind on lease payments, inventory orders, and shop maintenance. Taking out high-interest loans felt risky.

In 2011, Mary learned about Line of Credit Depot through a local radio ad. She applied and was approved for a $35,000 line of credit tailored to the florist's needs. This provided essential working capital to stay afloat.

Mary used the financing to catch up on overdue payments, invest in an expanded online shop, and refresh the dated store interior. With this financial cushion, Petal Pushers weathered the rest of the recession.

Today, the beloved florist continues thriving with loyal individual and corporate clients. Mary feels confident she can rely on the Line of Credit Depot financing again if ever needed. She credits their customer-focused approach with saving her Maryland small business during challenging times.
