See how Ryan is using Nav Prime to power an at-home microgreens farm
Ryan Lockwood had planned to complete his career as a firefighter, but found himself wanting more time with his family. After his wife Taryn discovered an allergy, they found their purpose — and their business idea. Ryan and Taryn launched Houston-based BCK Ranch in 2022 to help people with heavy metal allergies enjoy greens again. Soon enough, local chefs and grocers were placing orders. As they’ve expanded, Ryan has used Nav Prime to build business credit and finance BCK Ranch’s operations.
“Big banks don’t want to fund a new business. They don’t see you as anything in your first two years. Nav has taken that zero to two year mark and said, hey, we trust you. We want to build a relationship with you.”
— Ryan Lockwood
