Independent SME funder, Bibby Financial Services (BFS), has provided a £2.5m funding facility to Brit-Pol Limited, a UK haulage specialist with a decade of experience in the industry. 

Based in Immingham, Lincolnshire, Brit-Pol Ltd is a family-run haulage company that collects goods in Europe and delivers to Blue Chip Companies operating in Germany, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and the UK.  

Established in 2011 by brothers Adam and Sebastian Zegocki with just one truck and one customer, the company now has a fleet of 90 trucks in the UK, 40 trucks and 300 trailers in Europe and an annual income of £15m. 

The company operates from premises in Immingham, Lincolnshire; ideally located to serve all five major ports on the Humber bank; Grimsby, Immingham, Killingholme, Hull and Goole, as well as the three main multimodal rail depots at Rotherham, Doncaster and Leeds.  

While seeking financial support to boost their working capital, the business was introduced to BFS’s corporate funding team by Graham Cooper of Avanti Corporate Solutions. BFS Corporate Manager, David McIntyre and Assistant Corporate Manager, Ellen McEvoy, worked quickly to understand the needs of the business and were able to structure an Invoice Finance package that funds 100% non-UK debt, funding contracts outside of UK jurisdiction.  

The £2.5m invoice discounting facility will enable the business to extend its export and import markets, strengthen its fleet and establish a new office in Poland, with the aim of doubling its income in the next 12 months.

David McIntyre, corporate manager, Bibby Financial Services, said: “Working closely with the management team, we were able to structure a unique facility which exclusively finances overseas contracts, enabling the business to progress its expansion in European markets.

“The team have demonstrated they have the processes in place and expertise to navigate new legislative changes in regard to Brexit, so we’re delighted to be able to deliver a solution that will provide the working capital required for the business to grow in 2021 and beyond.”
