Business Partner Spotlight – Fincher & Bear Business Finance

From artisan dairy farms to established ice cream brands supplying cafés, restaurants and retailers, demand for quality ice cream continues to grow. What was once considered a seasonal product has become an all-year-round favourite, creating exciting opportunities for businesses looking to diversify or expand production.

That's where the partnership between Fincher and Bear Business Finance comes in.

Interested in producing artisan gelato or planning a complete manufacturing facility? Investing in the right equipment is one of the biggest decisions you'll make.

Fincher does far more than supply machinery. With decades of engineering and industry experience, they help businesses design and plan complete production facilities, recommend the most suitable equipment, oversee installation and continue supporting clients through servicing, maintenance and future upgrades.

Their team works with everyone from small dairy farms looking to diversify into ice cream production through to established manufacturers planning large-scale factories in partnership with leading equipment manufacturer Tetra Pak.

The right equipment is only one part of a successful venture. Bear Business Finance can help fund a complete solution including:

• Recruitment & staff training

• Cashflow management

Using our panel of extensive and diverse lenders, we'll identify the most suitable, tax efficient funding solutions for your business

One recent client was experiencing demand that had outgrown their existing production capability, so they approached Fincher to source higher-capacity equipment that would allow them to increase output and improve efficiency ahead of the busy summer season.



Working together, Fincher specified and supplied the right machinery while Bear arranged funding quickly, enabling the equipment to be installed without delaying the client's growth plans.

Fincher provides the technical expertise and Bear provides the funding expertise.

Together we help businesses:

· Diversify into ice cream production

· Upgrade ageing equipment

· Refinance existing assets

· Increase production capacity

· Build new production facilities

· Preserve working capital while investing for growth

It's a partnership designed to make ambitious projects achievable.

If you're a dairy farm looking to diversify, an artisan producer ready to scale up or an established manufacturer investing in new production facilities, Fincher and BEAR Business Finance can help turn your plans into reality.
