Finance that delivers!
From packets to pallets, storage to distribution, the logistics sector is a vital part of the UK’s economy, it is the link in the chain that so many other industries rely upon. With the continual growth of e-commerce, there is a great opportunity for courier, haulage and distribution businesses to expand and grow. However, to do this it is imperative to have the latest equipment and technologies to remain ahead of the competition. Are you ready for the growing number of Clean Air Zones in the UK soon to be enforced? Do you have plans to improve your green credentials? With the dynamics of how we employ staff and the increased demand for contract workers, these changes can put a significant strain on cash resources for salaries. All of these factors combined have a major impact on your balance sheet and working capital.
At Clear Business Finance we have the solutions that can help.

Logistics finance explained
here’s your options
Leasing
Ideal for those looking to protect themselves against asset depreciation or where ownership isn’t necessary. With a lease agreement you are effectively renting the equipment for an agreed term with the option to upgrade at any point, ensuring your business always has the latest kit. Acquisitions with leasing allow you to minimise or even remove upfront fees and also spread the VAT over the length of the contract. Instalments are pre-set, allowing you to more effectively forecast outgoings. You will always get the option to continue using the equipment at the end of the term.
Discover Leasing
Hire Purchase
In a nutshell, a Higher Purchase agreement contains the option to
purchase the asset at the end of the term for a pre agreed fee. Higher
Purchase is a common choice for businesses looking to avoid the large
upfront outlay associated with acquiring assets that have a high
residual value. Breaking down the expense over time will help to
protect your cash flow while you’ve got the added comfort of knowing
your repayments are contributing to your eventual ownership. At the
beginning of the agreement, an initial deposit is usually paid, the
amount of which can vary, for example, you might choose to pay a
higher deposit in order to reduce the on-going monthly payments.
Vehicle Finance
You pick the vehicle and we’ll organise the finance. Company directors, partners and sole traders can benefit from our highly competitive Lease, HP and Contract Hire options. Fleet vehicles, company vehicles or luxury cars on flexible terms from 1 to 5 years, balloons up to 50% and no deposit required.

Business Loans
Business loans are generally seen as the most widely accessible form of funding but for this reason the options can seem overwhelming. We can make the choice Clear. Forget expensive credit cards and inflexible overdrafts, business loans are used to keep your cash flow healthy and provide greater peace of mind. Could your business benefit from a working capital injection
to help you realise your goals? Could breaking down an upcoming tax bill
into manageable instalments help to make your outgoings more manageable?
