What is the Growth Guarantee Scheme for Supermarkets?

Government-Backed Loan Guarantees

The Growth Guarantee Scheme offers supermarkets and other small businesses loans with a 70% government-backed guarantee, making it easier for them to access finance from lenders even if they have less collateral or face higher risks. This protects the lender while allowing the business to borrow for important needs.

Flexible Uses and Support for Growth

Supermarkets can use funds from the scheme for a range of purposes such as managing cash flow, investing in equipment, paying suppliers, staffing, marketing, or expanding stores. The scheme supports not just survival during tough times, but also helps businesses invest and grow.

Eligibility and Fair Practices

To qualify, supermarkets must be UK-based, have a turnover under £45 million, and be viable businesses. The scheme ensures fair access: businesses are still fully responsible for the loan, but benefit from flexible terms and clearer eligibility, with personal residences protected from lender claims.
