Mash Tuns? Fermenters? Steam Boilers? Centrifuges? Canning lines? Whether you are a start-up microbrewery, setting up a craft bar, or planning your next spirit, Moorgate Brewery & Distillery Finance is here to help you make it happen.
With over 2000 independent breweries in the UK, and distilleries increasing by almost 50%, it is evident that the UK’s love for local beer and spirits continues.
We have been working with some of these businesses for many years and we have seen significant growth in direct-to-consumer subscription services and supermarkets. They are diversifying their range to offer customers wider options, as well as the growth of the tap room.
Our aim is to work with breweries and distilleries to understand their needs and present them with options to support their business and allow them to grow. Some of the more typical activities we see are wanting to grow brewhouses, purchase new equipment, open new tap rooms and introduce customer experiences. Sometimes these businesses they just need the available cash flow to make it happen.
“They didn’t just meet my expectations – they exceeded them. They worked tirelessly to get me exactly what I needed, and did so at a competitive price that really worked for me. Throughout the process, they wwere approachable, knowledgeable, and always kept me informed, making what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless.”
– Lee Taylor
Brewery Finance Case Studies
£9500 Hire Purchase Agreement for a London Pub
The Challenge
This business needed to fully kit out their pub with TV’s, furniture, CCTV, pool tables, dartboards and other fittings in time for the Euros. However, this doesn’t come without a large price tag, so they turned to Moorgate to help them with finance. The Euros were only two weeks away when this London sport pub came to us, meaning time also wasn’t on our side to get this deal across the line. They had also previously been declined after going to a bank for the funding.
The Solution
The fit out was essential for this pub to take advantage of how busy London would be during the Euros, so we were pleased to be able to finance £9500 on a Hire Purchase Agreement over two years. The deal was also completed within four days of the initial enquiry, ensuring everything was in place before the games started.
VAT-only Deposit Deal for Carr Taylor Wines
The Challenge
As business continues to grow, Carr-Taylor needed to upgrade their machinery to keep up with demand. Their previous bottling machine required staff to be present, therefore limiting the amount of bottling that could take place to working hours. To maximise on bottling potential, the business decided it was time to invest in an automated machine ready for the new harvest, as well as a new crop sprayer.
The Solution
We are pleased to have achieved the financials to have a new bottling machine delivered out of storage from Italy as well as the new crop sprayer. As a result, the new bottler alone will help the business to generate over £1m in revenue from the wine being bottled. The deal was a VAT-only deposit, involved arranging payment to a foreign supplier and securing affordable payments.
