Funding for your franchise purchase and for business growth

Having easy, affordable, access to working capital makes business growth and success so much easier. This applies as much to franchise businesses as to any other.
‍
Buying into a franchise demands substantial upfront investment, which you may fund yourself. But working capital - the cash required for running day-to-day operations and which seeds growth - is also essential.
‍
We help franchise owners raise the capital that will help them grow and thrive.

With the right funding in place for your franchise business you can:

‍

The first steps towards the funding your business deserves

Tell us a bit more about your requirements

Get started

Eligibility

Turnover

Unless you are a new start-up company, the minimum turnover most lenders will deal with is £250,000.

Trading History

Similarly to Turnover, start-up companies can get funding, however a minimum of 6-12 months trading will give you access to a much more broad range of lenders on our panel.

UK Registered Businesses

Due to us dealing with UK Based Lenders, we can only find funding solutions for UK Registered Businesses.

Unsecured loans for franchise businesses

You want to capitalise on the brand that you’ve bought into. An unsecured loan can help you achieve this. The loan allows you to invest in the future of your business, giving you the funds vital to securing ongoing success.

Some benefits of an unsecured loan for a franchise business include:
- Gives you the cash to help generate future revenue.
- Repayments over a fixed term, allowing you to plan.
- No assets are used as collateral.

We help business owners explore the finance options that will be most appropriate and cost-effective for their circumstances.

Funding for all stages of the franchise business life cycle

Owning a business is a journey, and franchise business ownership is no different. We help both franchisees and franchisers secure the funding they need.

- Buying your first franchise business.

FAQs

Can I get funding to open a franchise business?

keyboard_arrow_down

Yes, we can help you raise the funds needed to purchase the franchise.
However, every franchisor has their own approach to how the purchase of a franchise is funded. We recommend that you speak to them first, to understand what is acceptable and how other franchisees have raised finance.

Can I get invoice finance for a franchise business?

keyboard_arrow_down

It is possible to arrange invoice finance for a franchise business, where that business raises invoices on its customers on credit terms.
For franchise businesses that sell direct to consumers, where invoice finance is not appropriate, other funding options are available.

How much is the typical loan to a franchise business?

keyboard_arrow_down

Because every situation is different, the amounts raised and the methods of funding will vary. However, the finance arrangements we help to put in place typically range from £20k up to £1m and beyond.
What’s important is that the amount is right for your business and circumstances.
