do you need funding for your start up business?
Few industries face as many variables such as the transport and logistics industry. Regardless of the turnover for a business in this area, the priority is to keep their fleet on the road and moving, making sure that driver’s wages, hire purchase, lease payments and fuel bills are all paid on time.
Volatile fuel costs, combined with the variations in exchange rates and an economy struggling to better its import and export ratios, competition from European transport companies make operating a profitable business increasingly difficult. In such a challenging climate, many hauliers are focussed on maintaining an operation that is successful and profitable. Unexpected repairs and keeping up with regulation can turn a small profit in to a loss and have an adverse effect on the company. In order to help ease this, cash flow is important and this is where haulage Factoring can help.

What's the difference between factoring and invoice discounting?With factoring, you will choose the lender who will collect the payment from your customers, this works best for small to medium sized businsses. Your customers know that you're using factoring but the factoring company will handle the credit control directly and will neogiate terms with customers. Invoice discounting is more straightforward and is used by large and established businesses. Compared to factoring, you will still have access to credit control but your customer will be unaware that you are borrowing against their invoices. With invoice discounting you can avoid a third party (the invoice financier), allowing you to deal directly with your customers.
