Case Study

A well established engineering company based in the Midlands suffered a downturn in trade which resulted in their bank asking them to repay a proportion of their overdraft facility.

ECF recommended they raise the capital required by refinancing their unencumbered plant and machinery. ECF agreed a £175k Sale and Leaseback facility which not only repaid the overdraft with the bank but created an additional £50k for working capital.

The Finance Director commented, “ECF’s suggestion to use our own assets to satisfy our cash requirement was the perfect solution to our problem. They even provided the funds to settle outstanding finance on one of our machines.”
