A well-known hire and sales company based in South Wales approached MacManus Asset Finance Ltd following the opening of a new office. The business required funding for a brand-new IT and CCTV package to support its expansion.
As an established operator in South Wales, the company has worked with us since 2017, completing multiple asset finance agreements over the years. This latest transaction marked their seventh completed deal with our team, demonstrating an ongoing relationship built on trust, speed, and reliable delivery.
The investment in upgraded IT systems and CCTV infrastructure was essential to support operational efficiency, security, and continued growth in South Wales.
The Challenge
Opening a new office in South Wales required immediate installation of modern IT infrastructure and CCTV systems. The total asset value was £19,500, and the business wanted to avoid a significant upfront capital outlay.
Preserving working capital was a key priority. Rather than tying up cash reserves, the company sought a structured asset finance solution that would spread the cost over time while allowing the equipment to be deployed immediately.
Speed was also critical. Any delay in securing business funding could have disrupted operations at the new South Wales site.
The Solution
MacManus Asset Finance arranged a tailored asset finance facility to fund the £19,500 IT and CCTV package.
Using our panel of over 60 lenders, we sourced a competitive finance structure aligned with the client’s cash flow requirements. The facility enabled the business to acquire the IT and security assets without impacting day-to-day liquidity.
The agreement was structured to provide manageable repayments, supporting cash flow while ensuring the company could operate its new South Wales office with fully installed systems from day one.
Whether funding technology, plant and machinery finance, or security systems, we structure solutions including hire purchase and leasing options to suit each client’s commercial objectives. In this case, the asset finance facility allowed the business to protect working capital while investing confidently in infrastructure.
The Outcome
With the asset finance facility in place, the hire and sales company successfully launched its new South Wales office with upgraded IT and CCTV systems fully operational.
By spreading the cost through commercial finance rather than using cash reserves, the business maintained financial flexibility and working capital. This supports ongoing service delivery and future growth plans across South Wales.
The quick turnaround ensured there were no delays to the office opening, and the structured repayment plan aligned with trading income.
This transaction highlights how asset finance and asset refinance solutions can support expansion without restricting liquidity. For businesses investing in IT, security systems, or plant and machinery, structured business funding provides a practical route to growth.
