A bank that understands Franchisees
Open your eyes to franchising opportunities
Franchising is a way of starting your own business by buying into a proven format with the initial training and ongoing support from the franchisor. If you are thinking of becoming a franchisee we can help you.
Our experienced Franchise Managers have access to a wealth of franchise information and they combine this with their local knowledge to offer tailored support and guidance.

Our range of flexible and competitive loans, overdrafts and other financial solutions can assist you in taking your business forward. We can fund your requirements at preferential interest rates usually up to 70% of the total set up costs, including any working capital requirement, subject to status.

All lending is subject to a satisfactory credit assessment and we will need your permission to carry out a credit check on you and your business.
You should not apply for an amount that you cannot comfortably afford to repay now and in the future to avoid the possibility of legal action.
