ThisWorks, an award-winning skincare and beauty products company, was in need of a larger and more flexible facility to weather the seasonal ebb and flow of their business.

“Due to recent acquisitions, disposals and structural changes in the business, we needed to find a lender who could provide a flexible cross border ABL facility. Additionally, a quick turnaround was of the essence. FGI was able to stick to a clearly defined strategy and timetable, and provide us with a flexible, £12 million AR facility in just 9 weeks.”

“We were undergoing a recapitalization and had recently acquired one of our competitors. As a result, we needed a new facility that provided more availability and flexibility. FGI was able to work around the complexities of our situation and come up with a creative solution that provided us with a flexible, covenant-light $7 million ABL facility against our A/R and inventory.”

“After working with FGI to finance our Mexican sister company in 2015, we knew we didn’t need to look any further when the small overdraft facility we had with our US lender was no longer enough to support the company’s growth. As always, FGI provided us with a competitive and sophisticated solution to support our immediate working capital needs and our continued international expansion.”

“FGI provided us with a financing solution for both our US and UK companies, as well as our export receivables. Not only were they able to move quickly, but the $5 million ABL facility they provided us with offered increased availability and fewer covenants than the solution we had with our previous lender.”

“FGI really took the time to understand our business and our clients in order to provide us with a customised and flexible financing solution that we were unable to find elsewhere in the market. Their “can do” attitude, personal approach and knowledge of the products available to us, meant we were able to obtain a facility that will see CFS through the next phase of its life.”
