Supporting facts
The ambition
An installation business identified a Ford Transit L5 Flat Bed as the ideal vehicle to move longer, bulkier materials in fewer trips, but with several projects already booked, they were cautious about depleting cash reserves.
How the finance was structured
Identified three funding routes across our specialist lender panel and selected a 36-month Hire Purchase agreement with a deferred first payment timed to a major client invoice, early settlement flexibility, and a pre-agreed balloon option at term end.
What it made possible
The client took delivery within a week of applying, without straining working capital or missing project deadlines, and saw a 30% increase in delivery efficiency from the extended bed and higher payload.
