Funding Fit Out For Equestrian Facilities

With strong ‘family links’ to the equestrian  industry it is only natural that we should provide funding to owners of riding stables , liveries and equine veterinary facilities for a wide range of fit-out and associated expenditure.

Sometimes perceived as playthings for the wealthy, the reality is that liveries, competition yards and equestrian training and veterinary facilities are businesses like any other and to remain safe, compliant and competitive requires continuous investment in buildings, facilities and technology. That is in addition to the absolute basics like security, storage and lighting etc.

Why do equestrian businesses need fit out finance?

There are multiple reasons why equine businesses might make strategic use of funding facilities whether it is simply to preserve cash, to advance a project in order to stay ahead of the competition or to enter a new aspect of the equestrian world.

In many cases use of the correct strategic funding can optimise your tax position (always seek advice from a qualified tax advisor!)

By accessing our range of asset finance, equipment lease and unsecured/secured loan facilities to fund purchases of equipment as well as actual fit out, equestrian businesses can stay relevant and competitive at all times.

What Type of equipment can Fit Out Finance fund for equestrian facilities?

In keeping with out core ethos, Fit Out Finance can fund equipment purchase that are:

1. In & around the premises
2. Mission-critical.

In the context of equestrian  facilities that might be actual equipment or refurbishment of existing facilities.

For example, you might want to lease professional equipment such as a horse walker or treadmill, or hire purchase new jumps for your sand school.

As for buildings themselves, we funding can be available for stable fixtures such as matting, mangers, hay-bars or hay steamers. Alternatively you might be looking to fund an entire menage, internal stabling or perhaps field shelters.

Where the need is more esoteric such as refurbishing stables or indoor arenas or indeed expernal works, then an unsecured loan might be the best means of funding.

What types of facility can you provide funding for?

Whilst our clients are owner-managed Fit Out Finance are happy to look at funding for all types of equestrian facilities, both family-owned or more ‘corporate’. We are as happy funding a small chain of equestrian veterinary clinics as a family-owned training and livery yard.

Many of our clients are start ups at the time of our first transaction – we hope they will remain clients through the lifespan of the business.
