A Cannock company is supporting its customers' growth ambitions by making available tailored funding.

Briggs Equipment has set up a new asset finance division, BE Finance, to offer greater flexibility and make it easier for customers to obtain finance.

Offering a total asset management solution, BE Finance helps businesses to finance production equipment, commercial vehicles and even a complete warehouse solution, in conjunction with Hyster and Yale materials handling equipment.

Briggs Equipment's Managing Director Peter Jones said:"BE Finance is unique in our marketplace. As a cornerstone of our 'one-stop' approach to total asset management - from procurement through to disposal - it is purpose-designed to make it easier for businesses to grow."

With contracts tailored to meet an individual company's specific requirements, BE Finance offers customers unprecedented flexibility, ease of administration both at inception and throughout the contract, and choice.

Most banks and finance houses evaluate a lending proposition on its own merits. BE Finance is different because it considers all aspects of a company's capital requirements and cash flow to determine where and how to add value.

There are no arrangement fees and no banks or third parties are involved. Customers deal directly with Briggs, which eliminates delays due to red tape and helps to simplify and speed up the decision-making process. With in-house finance experts and access to specialist resources, Briggs can be creative in providing customers with tailored funding solutions.

All BE Finance plans are based around contract hire, whichoffers a straightforward approach to equipment acquisition and enables customers toenjoy thefull benefit for the life of the asset.Fixed costshelp to make forward planning easier and minimal cash outlay is involved.
