The Challenge
A long-established, family-run hay and straw contractor wanted to take their business to the next level with an exciting new growth idea, but they needed a significant investment to make it happen.
Having worked with this client for many years, we’d already supported them through business finance solutions for farming equipment and vehicle purchases. Over time, that partnership built strong trust and a deep understanding of their operation and goals.
When they approached us about expanding further, it was clear they needed fast, flexible funding that would allow them to act quickly without affecting day-to-day cash flow.
The Solution
After reviewing their plans in detail, we were able to secure a £250,000 short-term business loan over a six-month term.
This working capital finance solution provided the flexibility they needed to pursue their new opportunity and invest in future growth. Because of our long-standing relationship, the process was smooth and straightforward ensuring funds were available quickly so they could move ahead with confidence.
Our experience in agricultural funding and understanding of seasonal cash flow challenges helped us structure the facility in a way that worked perfectly for their business.
The Result
The business has already achieved significant growth in a short period, successfully turning their investment into measurable progress. With strong results already showing, they’re now planning for further expansion and additional investment in the months ahead.
This case is a great example of how the right business finance partner can make all the difference, combining sector knowledge, speed, and trust to help ambitious family businesses reach their goals.
We’re proud to continue supporting local, hardworking companies like this, who are at the heart of our rural economy and the wider agricultural community.
