Unique Home Furnishings Business Receives £2.5M Facility From Cynergy Business Finance

Esselle Retail Limited (ERL), a unique home furnishings business with a strong national footprint, has received a £2.5m asset-based lending facility from Cynergy Business Finance to support its continued growth.

Based in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, ERL specialises in floor home furnishings, including door mats, rugs and decorative throws. Selling directly to consumers across the UK, ERL has already established a strong national presence, with its products retailing in leading UK high-street stores including The Range and B&M.

Having recently acquired Arthouse Limited, a wallpaper and wall art business, ERL required additional working capital to help support its strategic acquisition of Arthouse, as well as allowing it to continue working towards its longer-term growth ambitions.

Cynergy Business Finance worked closely with the businesses management team to provide a flexible invoice discounting facility in order to free up the additional working capital required to help support ERL. Given time-sensitivities surrounding the acquisition, a quick turnaround was required to ensure the business could continue its growth trajectory.

The CEO and founder at Esselle Retail Limited, said: “It’s an exciting time at Esselle, as we continue to expand through strategic acquisitions as well as bolstering our existing product range. This new facility provides us with the additional funding we need to continue on our growth journey.

The Cynergy team have been great to work with. By bringing such a breadth of experience, the team were able to create a bespoke facility that aligned with our growth plans and provided the flexibility we required. I look forward to continuing to work with the team and can’t wait to see what the future holds.”

Luke Fitzsimmons, corporate sales director at Cynergy Business Finance, added: “Esselle is an exciting and ambitious SME that already has strong expertise in the home furnishings market. By supporting its purchase of Arthouse Limited, this will allow the group to continue to grow and provide continuity for the Arthouse brand.

“We were able to provide a bespoke facility on what was a time sensitive deal, ensuring we met all the team’s deadlines whilst providing a facility that will help them to continue growing.”
