Selected recommendation
Find equipment first
The oven quote is the nearer bottleneck — not the partner.
Reasoning
- You said
- I need a business partner and investor before I can buy the bakery equipment.
- Squibb reads it as
- Validate equipment cost and seller before raising or partnering.
- A specific oven quote exists — capital ask can be sized to a number.
- Equipment purchase does not require equity dilution on day one.
- Proof of a real asset makes lender and partner conversations concrete.
Counterpoint: If the seller is unverified, pause equipment and verify before any capital move.
