UK Window Group is currently undergoing a turnaround following a management buyout from Masco Corporation in September 2019. The facility provided by Secure Trust Bank will further assist the turnaround, allowing the business to invest working capital into its future growth. The company is rolling out plans to expand its product range and also the growth of its network of Sevenday trade counters.

Secure Trust Bank Commercial Finance offers asset-based lending, ranging from £1m to £50m to SMEs across the country.

George Shannon, CFO at UK Window Group, said (pictured): “Secure Trust Bank could see that we were on track with our turnaround plan and coming out of a period of heavy losses. They proved to be responsive and pragmatic, moving quickly from initial proposals through to completion over a number of weeks – as opposed to months – despite the complexities of our business and its legacy systems and processes.

“The team at Secure Trust Bank has provided us with a flexible ABL facility to fund the turnaround, as well as future growth, and we look forward to putting this new funding to good use.”
