What finance options are available to you

Asset finance

You might be a shop owner looking to expand into a new premise and need funding to support this. You might need equipment finance to install counters, refrigeration into shops, buy or lease a new fleet of vans for deliveries or shelves in a warehouse where stock is stored.

Alternatively, you might be a wholesale business supplying goods to sellers on sites like Amazon & eBay. A finance lease may be convenient for you to purchase racking and storage space for a new warehouse.

Asset Finance Solutions

Business loans

With the shift to more retail being carried out online, many retail high street retailers and convenience stores have a high foot fall of people who are in need of everyday essentials. A business loan will allow you to purchase a large quantity of stock to entice and retain customers.

An established online presence and a good marketing team are increasingly important. Business loans will enable you to hire the experts with the right knowledge and qualifications to make these marketing decisions, as well as creating new and enticing campaigns to keep your business ahead of the competition.

Business Loan Options

Refinance loans

You can use your existing assets, such as any warehouses you currently own, or valuable machinery which has a high residual value, and make them work even better for you by refinancing.

Refinancing loans allow you to inject working capital into your business when you need it. You can use this capital for a variety of things like expansion or simple cash injection.

Our trusted team can provide the support to help you assess whether refinancing is a good option for your business.

    We had a task to gather financial information and approach underwriters for an approval. Once the asset finance was approved we released payment to the customers chosen fitout company. Two weeks later the store was open and ready to trade.

    The business was able to entice new customers and provide them with a new shopping experience. As a result, the Service Station had seen a 40% increase in fuel sales and 60% in shop sales. Our customer is now one of the most visited petrol stations in Birchington.
