FUNDING A START UP

Practical finance to help you begin

Many of our borrowers come to us in the earliest stages of launching a new venture. Wherever you are in your journey, our relationship-led lending model allows us to consider more than just your trading history. We’re sector agnostic and lend for almost any business purpose.

HOW OUR LOANS CAN HELP

Finance for new business ventures

Getting a new venture off the ground often requires that first injection of capital,  and it’s not always easy to secure when you don’t have a trading history. Our loans can give you the confidence and the capital to take the next step and help you:

  • Buy, develop, or convert property for your business

  • Fit-out retail, hospitality, or office spaces

  • Buy equipment, stock, or technology

  • Provide initial working capital or to smooth seasonal cash flow

  • Fund marketing, branding, and launch activity

  • Bridge the gap while awaiting grants, planning permission, or sales

WHY CHOOSE FOLK2FOLK

Finance that backs your potential

Our model is built for businesses that don’t always fit the mould, and that includes startups. That’s why we focus on the strength of your plan, your property security, and your ambition.
