Canada’s hospitality industry is full of people doing amazing things — from first-time café owners and seasoned restaurateurs to the manufacturers and service providers who support them. Since 2013, SilverChef has proudly backed this vibrant industry, offering flexible equipment financing tailored to its unique pace and pressures.
In 2021, we expanded that support by acquiring Canadian-based EconoLease — a long-standing leader in equipment leasing and vendor finance.
Now, we’re excited to share the next step in our journey:
We’ve brought together the strength of two passionate teams under one respected banner. This rebrand unites our shared commitment to hospitality, built over decades and backed by over $2.1 billion invested globally in the industry to date.
While the name and branding have changed, our mission remains unchanged: To help Canadian hospitality businesses thrive, whether they’re just starting out or scaling up.
As our customer, you can look forward to even more support to help your business succeed:
We’ve changed our name, but our purpose remains the same: helping hospitality businesses thrive.
We’re combining the legacy of two trusted names - SilverChef and EconoLease - into one. This shift simplifies our presence in Canada and gives us even more strength to deliver outstanding service and solutions.
You’ll start to see “EconoLease” on emails, invoices, and our website, and you’ll also benefit from a broader range of finance products designed to help your business grow.
Not at all. Your existing agreement remains valid, and you don’t need to take any action.
Absolutely — and now you have access to even more. Alongside Rent-Try-Buy and Certified Used Equipment, we’ve expanded our offering to include a broader range of finance solutions, including equipment leasing and business loans.
With more ways to fund your equipment, upgrade your kitchen, or manage cash flow, we’re here to support your business with the flexibility and backing it needs to thrive.
Our customer support team is here to help or answer any questions you might have.

We’re proud to support the moments that matter to 40 million Canadians and honoured to play a small part in your story.
Thank you for your continued trust.
