Oakgrove Finance, based in Jackson, Michigan, helps small businesses compare funding: working capital, term loans, lines of credit, inventory and equipment financing and merchant cash advances. It takes requests by phone or form and passes them to funding partners, who review each request and make their own decisions.
What Oakgrove Finance Is and Where It Works
Oakgrove Finance works from 147 W Pearl St, Jackson, MI 49201, and takes requests by phone at (517) 418-3568 or through the online request form. Its work sits before a funding decision: understanding what the money is for and when it comes back, narrowing six funding types to the ones that fit, and passing the request to funding partners that consider that kind of need.
Oakgrove Finance matches your request with funding partners, who review it and make their own decision. It does not set rates, approve requests or put up the money.
What Oakgrove Can Do for a Jackson County, MI Salon
For a salon, Oakgrove can help sort the request: a dryer bank and shampoo stations toward equipment financing, a slow stretch while new stylists build a book toward working capital, a buyout of a retiring owner toward a term loan. Jackson County, MI had 27 beauty salon employers in 2023 (CBP) and 385 salons without payroll in 2024 (Nonemployer Statistics, a separate count).
The salon business loans page covers chairs, booths and product stock in detail.

Where a Jackson County, MI Grocery Request Goes
A grocery request starts with the bill: a cooler line, a remodel, a wholesale order or the price of buying the store. Oakgrove sorts it by funding type and passes it to partners that review that kind of request. Jackson County, MI had 37 grocery store employers in 2023 with 812 paid employees (CBP).
From there, the partner reads the store's statements and records and decides. The grocery store loans page explains what partners look at for each purpose.
What Oakgrove Does and Does Not Do for Grocers

- Does: answer questions about how each funding type is paid back or collected.
- Does not: negotiate with suppliers or wholesalers on the store's behalf.
- Does not: promise an offer, a rate or a timeline.
