Without Tying Up Your Capital
ZIG partners with proven brick-and-mortar operators as an exclusive capital and site-procurement partner.
We predominantly source off-market properties and, in many cases, fund 100% of the property capital — so you can preserve your capital for equipment, employees, marketing, and operations.

Keep cash for equipment, marketing, hiring and operations.
EXPERIENCED PARTNER
We handle site procurement, real estate and capital execution.
REPEATABLE GROWTH
Build a predictable pipeline of new locations across your target markets.
