Digital-native eyewear brands hit CAC ceilings online, so kiosks in high-footfall malls promise fresh eyeballs—literally. But each 15 m² kiosk costs ≈ AED 500 k in build-out and working stock.

Capital Stack That Protects Equity

  • 20 % Equity Splash: Signals founder confidence; caps dilution.
  • 60 % Asset-Backed Term Loan (36 mo): Secured by fixtures—mirrors, display drawers, optometry kit.
  • 20 % Revolving Stock Line: Cycles every 90 days until kiosk breaks even (typically month 9).

KPI Guardrails

  • Payback period ≤18 months.
  • Store-level EBITDA margin >22 % by month 12.
  • Monthly stock turns ≥2× to avoid fashion obsolescence.
