VAT & Tax Loans -
Local Family-Run Business – Professional Introduction
We helped this flooring company acquire VAT and working capital funding.
Opportunity:
This long-established, family-run business had seen the business expand to five shops in and around the Liverpool and Wirral region. This growth caused a tightening of cash-flow and a slowing down of further expansion plans.
Approach:
We were initially approached by their accountant to spread the cost of the Director’s personal tax. However, following further communication with the accountant and their client, it was established they had a need to also spread their upcoming VAT payments and raise a further £60k working capital to aid the further expansion of the business.
Solution:
A short term unsecured 3-month and 12-month loan respectively was sourced to facilitate the VAT & tax. An additional £60k was raised equally between two funders, repayable over 12 & 36 months to support the business growth plans, which included purchasing of artificial grass to sell during the summer months. All facilities were supported solely by the Directors’ guarantees.
