Christie Finance secures funding for first-time convenience store acquisition

Purchasing a convenience store for the first time can be complex and challenging, particularly when the deal is partially forecast-led and high-street lenders are reluctant to provide funding. Our team worked closely with the client to provide expert guidance and support throughout every stage of the transaction. From structuring the finance package to navigating the intricacies of the deal, we ensured the process was as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Through our tailored approach and persistence, the client successfully acquired the leasehold store in the West Midlands. The business is well-established and offers significant potential for growth.

Ashley Clements, Associate Director at Christie Finance, comments, "It was a pleasure to work with this client to support them through their first business acquisition. There were some challenges with the deal, which meant that we were unable to use the lenders that are most active in this sector and had to rely upon our wide network of lenders to secure the client the funding they needed to assist with the acquisition."

We are proud to have played a key role in making this acquisition possible and look forward to seeing their business thrive.
