Our Story
Forged in Brooklyn
Nickel NY Inc was founded on a simple observation: Brooklyn businesses—the backbone of our borough—were being underserved by traditional lenders who didn't understand the unique rhythm of industrial and small business operations.
We took a different approach. As a direct lender, we eliminate intermediaries, reduce costs, and make decisions based on real business fundamentals—not just credit scores. Our team brings 15+ years of combined experience in commercial lending, equipment financing, and Brooklyn real estate.
Today, we've funded over $500 million across 1,200+ businesses, from manufacturing shops in Sunset Park to retail operations in Williamsburg. We're not just writing checks—we're building the infrastructure for Brooklyn's next generation of entrepreneurs.
