What is the Growth Guarantee Scheme for Homeware and Furniture Sellers?

Government-Backed Financing Options

The Growth Guarantee Scheme offers homeware and furniture sellers access to various finance products, like term loans, overdrafts, asset finance, and invoice finance, with facility sizes up to £2 million. Eligible businesses get improved access to funding, supported by a 70% government guarantee to lenders, making it easier to secure loans for working capital, growth, or investment needs.

No Primary Residence at Risk & Streamlined Process

To qualify, businesses must be UK-based, have a turnover below £45 million, and show financial viability. The scheme covers both established and newer businesses and supports diverse needs, such as inventory purchase, equipment upgrades, or business expansion, and can even be used to refinance certain existing debts.

No Primary Residence at Risk & Streamlined Process

For most loans, the business owner's main home cannot be used as security, with personal guarantees typically based on business assets instead. The application and approval process is streamlined, often releasing funds within 48 hours of acceptance, enabling faster and safer access to capital.
