Asset Finance for Vehicles and Trailers
Philippa Whait has been a loyal client of Causon Business Finance since the start of her road haulage business. From her first truck and trailer to a growing fleet of trucks and trailers, Causon has been there to provide flexible funding solutions every step of the way.
The Challenge
Starting a transport business requires significant capital investment in vehicles and equipment. Pressures could be there from the outset with VOSA requiring the operator to hold cash in their bank account for each truck they operate. Philippa needed a partner who could provide reliable financing when the business was first starting out, while allowing her to focus on growing the business. As the company expanded, each new acquisition needed planning to keep deposits to a minimum, protect cash flow and to not slow down the business.
The Solution
Causon Business Finance arranged tailored asset finance packages for every vehicle and trailer acquisition. Their attention to detail, personal service, and flexible approach meant that Philippa could grow her fleet at a pace that suited her business, with funding solutions that matched the business’s ambitions.
The Results
Started with a first truck and trailer, growing the business sustainably
Expanded to several trucks and trailers each over the last few years
Maintained healthy cash flow by managing minimum deposits, while scaling operations
Experienced a personalised service that made Philippa feel like a priority
“We have used Causon Business Finance several times now and each time their attention to detail and prioritising our work feels as we are their only client. I would recommend Richard and his team every time. Thank you for making it all possible.”
