Real businesses, real finance

Every business here came to us with a project: a new kitchen, a garage that needed MOT equipment, a student development full of audio visual kit. The details differ, but the questions are familiar. How do we fund it without draining cash? How do we pay several suppliers at the right moments? Who deals with the paperwork?

Read the stories below to see how we approached each one. You will find start ups with no trading history, established groups releasing cash from equipment they already own, and projects worth many thousands of pounds. If one looks like yours, we would be glad to hear from you.

Questions about our case studies

A few quick answers before you get in touch.

Are these real clients?
Yes. Each case study describes a business we have funded, and the quotes are the clients' own words.
Can you help a business that is just starting out?
Often, yes. Several of these stories involve start ups, and we also have in-house options for some new businesses. Read the start up funding page for more.
Does my project have to be as big as these?
No. We arrange deals from £1,000 with no upper limit, so a single machine and a multi site fit out are both welcome.
How quickly can you give an answer?
Decisions often come within hours. Our simple application takes minutes, and you can sign documents electronically with E-Sign.
What if my supplier does not offer finance?
That is common, and it does not stop us. We can fund the purchase and manage the supplier payment for you, as we did for a linen company buying a steam boiler.
