“We have worked with Mike and his team at Mulberry Asset finance for over 5 years. During this time, they have provided us with the specialist finance which has allowed us to develop and expand our Free Range Egg Production and Egg Packing business. Our recent investment in additional packing equipment has seen our Through Put ability increase and as a result, has helped our business increase its turnover by over 30%. Mike and his team are always keen to understand our business requirements and have a professional, straightforward approach which makes the whole process an efficient, cost effective source of finance. I would strongly recommend Mulberry Asset Finance’s service.”

“I had a coffee coaster with Mulberry Asset Finance on and decided to get a quote from them along with two others. They responded immediately with a quote. They gave a personal touch, whilst remaining competitive and efficient. I have now used them twice and found them a delight to deal with.”

Dale Benbow, Benbows Bros. Timber

“Mike at Mulberry Asset Finance worked incredibly hard and quickly to secure my first Hire Purchase deal. As a new company I was finding it difficult to obtain finance to grow my business. He provided me regular updates, which took a lot of the pressure and nerves out of the situation. With the finance clearing very quickly, I was able to put my GrandMA3 to work straight away - supporting The Eagles on their final EU tour. I will certainly use Mulberry’s services to continue growing the business.”

“The service provided by Mike was exceptional in terms of turnaround time, attention to detail and level of communication throughout the transaction. The consequence of this high level of service is that I approached only Mike and no other supplier to organise funding for my latest capital purchase, which again was handled impeccably.”

“Mulberry Asset Finance have helped significantly with the growth of our Artisan Bakery over the past six years. In the early stages when growth and access to finance is most difficult, they were able to help us acquire the equipment we needed. I am reassured that Mulberry Asset Finance will always get us the best deal without any fuss, allowing us to concentrate on the business and not have to worry about funding for new assets.”

Aidan Monks, Owner, Lovingly Artisan

“Mulberry Asset Finance have looked after my business loan and finance requirements for quite a few years now - and I trust them implicitly to find me the best deal they can, in the shortest time and with the least amount of hassle to myself. We've financed whole pub refurbishments through to small kitchen equipment and many things in between. There has never been a hitch or a delay and everything is conducted with the utmost professionalism and with a genuine interest in my business. I really can't recommend Mulberry Asset Finance highly enough... ”
