In short

The business needed funding for stock purchases and supplier payments ahead of customer sales. We arranged £43,600. The £43,600 facility completed.

Many of the businesses we work with are simply good, established companies making a sensible funding decision. Not every transaction needs a dramatic backstory.

This distribution business was one of them.

  1. The requirement

    The business needed funding for stock purchases and supplier payments ahead of customer sales.

    We arranged £43,600.

  2. The challenge

    Cash had to be committed before the stock could generate sales, so the business needed additional purchasing power without using up the liquidity required for normal operations.

  3. The structure

    We compared appropriate commercial-lending routes and placed the requirement with a lender whose appetite fitted the sector, amount and cash-flow profile.

  4. The result

    The £43,600 facility completed.

FAQs

Questions about this case

Is my business too ordinary to need a broker?
Not at all. Many of the deals we arrange are for well-run, established businesses making a sensible funding decision. The value is in matching the case to the lender whose criteria fit, first time.
Is this a real transaction?
Yes. Every case study on this site is a transaction we arranged and saw through to completion. Client details are anonymised, and we only publish what we can verify: we never invent figures, rates or outcomes.
Do you lend the money yourselves?
No. Smart Funding Solutions is a credit broker, not a lender. We search a panel of 300+ lenders, present your case to the ones whose criteria fit, and manage the application through to completion. The lender makes the final decision and all finance is subject to status.
What does it cost to talk to you?
It is free to enquire and there is no obligation. Any broker fee is disclosed separately before you proceed, and there is no obligation to accept an offer.
