How Warehouse Finance Can Help Your Business

Managing a warehouse efficiently requires the right equipment and infrastructure. However, acquiring these essentials—such as racking systems, forklifts, and conveyor belts—can be a significant investment.

At Union Business Finance, we offer affordable Warehouse & Racking Finance, providing tailored funding solutions that empower businesses to expand, optimise storage, and enhance operational efficiency. With our expert guidance and access to 100+ lenders, securing the right funding has never been easier.

Understanding Warehouse Finance

Warehouse finance is a specialised funding solution designed to help wholesale, logistics, storage and warehousing businesses acquire essential equipment and infrastructure.

It should not be confused with “warehouse financing”, which refers to short-term funding secured against stored inventory.

Warehouse finance enables businesses to purchase or lease:

  • Pallet racking and shelving systems to maximise storage space

  • Mezzanine structures (Not to be confused with “Mezzanine financing”)

  • Forklifts, pallet trucks, scissor lifts, cherry-pickers, and clamp trucks to improve material handling

  • Pallet wrapping / banding equipment and supplies
  • Loading bay repairs and upgrades for better efficiency
  • Conveyor systems for streamlined warehouse operations
  • Smart technology such as Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), or Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS)
  • Security enhancements, including CCTV and warehouse management systems
  • And more…

Who Can Benefit from Warehouse & Racking Finance?

Warehouse finance is ideal for:
  • Warehousing and storage companies
  • Logistics Companies
  • Wholesalers
  • Builders Merchants
  • Retailers
  • Major companies operating own warehouse operations
