HOW WE CAN HELP YOU SELL MORE EQUIPMENT

If you distribute or manufacture business

equipment, we can offer your customers finance

packages to suit their budget, meaning they can

have the best equipment for their business from

you – not just the cheapest. There’ll be no need

to offer hefty discounts to secure the sale.

Once Kennet has arranged the finance, you will

invoice Kennet directly and then deliver the

goods to your customer.

Kennet will pay your invoice directly to you – no

need to chase your customer. With payment

terms to suit your business, this leaves you to

concentrate on what you do best.

Y O U ?

Kennet can support your business, regardless of what

of what we can help to finance:

• Waste and recycling equipment – from balers to

sorting machines and crushers

• Garage equipment – from diagnostic machines to

MOT equipment, ramps and lifts

• Industrial and commercial floor cleaning equipment

• EPOS systems

• Dental equipment

• All types of catering equipment – coffee machines,

ice and ice cream machines, industrial glass washers,

ovens and ranges

• Salon equipment

• Construction machinery – diggers, earth moving,

forklifts and quarrying equipment

• Full office / shop refits funded

• Brewery equipment

• Outdoor screens for sporting venues

• Golf course equipment – driving range bays,

greenkeeping equipment, buggies

• Laser CNC machines

• Digital printing machines

• Photo-booths

We offer a wide range of finance products

for businesses. They include:

Lease

• You can lease virtually any type of

equipment from UK suppliers, at a term

that suits your business and with regular

monthly payments that won’t change

throughout the term

Hire purchase

• If a Hire Purchase is more convenient,

we can offer HP agreements. They differ

slightly from leases, where VAT is paid

up-front. This suits some businesses for

accounting purposes

Business loans

• We have access to a wide range of

business loan funders; with both secured

and unsecured loans available, this facility

can be used to help your business

Vehicle finance

• Kennet can offer you a wide range of

vehicle finance options, including personal

vehicle finance

Sale and leaseback

• If you have already paid for equipment

but would like to release the capital tied

up, this is an excellent way of doing this.

We will pay the invoice value into to your

account; regular leasing payments made

to us allows you to use the equipment

A maintenance contract

• Often, lease agreements can have an

equipment maintenance contract included

for peace of mind

Invoice financing

• If your customers owe you money, an

excellent way of getting your invoices

settled to release cash back into your

business

Master lease

• If you have equipment that is leased on

identical terms to various customers, this

is a good option for businesses to sell

their goods

Seasonal lease

• If equipment is not used for part of

the year, a seasonal lease will take the

pressure off paying over 12 months when

there may be little income generated from

its’ use

Operating lease

• Allows a lessee to use the equipment over

a fixed term, but there is no option

to own at the end
