Retail Business Loans

Fleximize's business finance is the perfect funding solution for UK retailers

Retail businesses in the UK have faced many challenges recently, not least the impact of Covid-19. Data from the Office for National Statistics points to encouraging signs of recovery as UK restrictions ease, but there are still plenty of hurdles for retailers to overcome. Gaining access to funding remains a major obstacle, especially for those who find it difficult to get approved by traditional lenders.

The good news is there are alternative retail finance providers like Fleximize who want to help businesses like yours secure the funding you need. Read on to find out more about retail finance, what it can be used for, how it works, and how to apply.

Business loans for retailers

Given the pace of change in the industry, retailers can't afford to wait around for funding. Whether it's purchasing more stock, launching a marketing campaign, or expanding premises, retail businesses need to know they have access to finance when they need it.

That's why traditional lenders such as banks might not be as attractive as they once were. It can take weeks to secure a meeting, and strict lending criteria means that many retailers might have their application turned down.

But there is a quicker route to the funding your retail business needs to grow. Unlike banks, alternative finance providers like Fleximize can deposit funds in as little as 24 hours, and you don’t need to have a perfect credit history to be considered for approval.

We understand that securing finance in the retail industry poses plenty of challenges, which is why we hope to say “yes” to as many businesses as possible. All of our customers are assigned a dedicated relationship manager, and they’ll work closely with you to create a retail finance package that’s tailored to your company.

    How our small retail business loans have helped others

    We know how important cash flow is for SMEs, which is why we were delighted to be able to help Montagne Sports owner Alan Barrie secure the retail finance he needed. Alan first came to us in 2016 after being let down by his bank and has since returned twice more.

    In 2018, he was looking to move quickly and secure a large quantity of stock at a discounted rate. Alan was approved for a small retail business loan of £20,000 and was able to pick up the equipment he wanted at a price that suited him.
