Most catering equipment distributors already know how vital leasing is to their business. Every sales person in every industry has spent hours producing a quotation for a customer, only for the customer to admit they can’t afford what could be the perfect product for them.
This situation is precisely where leasing offers flexibility. Leasing offers the supplier fast payment terms and minimum hassle. You supply the equipment; we pay you the money. It is that simple! Your customer also receives great benefits including tax benefits, retaining cash flow and easily structured, fixed payments throughout the term of the lease.
There are hundreds of leasing companies in the UK. But it is imperative you choose a leasing company who is right for you and your business model. You need a company who ensures a smooth, easy approval process, and who won’t
keep you or your customer waiting.
So, what is important to you? WestWon have created a list to help you choose the right leasing company.
Price – Naturally, costs are key to most businesses in the UK. The effect of Brexit has caused many industries to start raising their prices – not WestWon! If anything, more funders are entering the UK market to lend more money, which is driving leasing costs down. WestWon has relationships with 50 UK-based lenders and counting. This gives us some of the cheapest leasing prices in the UK!
Giving Something Back to You – How many can say your current leasing providers are working hard to give something back? You give your current finance company leads, but do you get anything in return except the usual service? With a new, online ‘Shop Facility’ under construction, we can help market your products for free, with the aim of driving leads back to you. WestWon are focused to make a difference for our catering equipment partners, and express our gratitude.
In addition, exclusively to the catering industry, WestWon offer a 2% commission to our suppliers for all paid-out lease agreements. You will receive an extra 2% profit, just for using WestWon’s free-to-use service. What’s not to like?
Speed – Timing is important in every business. You want to seem quick and efficient in front of your customer, and we’re no different. You, as a catering supplier, are our customer and speed is especially important to us. Therefore, if you need a quick quote when working on your proposal, WestWon offer instant, indicative quotes through our online quoting portal. Need an accurate quotation? No problem. WestWon’s company policy is to send an accurate quote over to you within 2 hours!
Experience – You need a finance company who can not only talk the talk, but walk the walk. Anyone can promise this and that, but companies who can deliver on these promises are harder to come by. Leasing is no different. If you want a company who has the relevant experience in the catering industry to give you what you want and when you need it, WestWon can help. The WestWon group celebrated its 40th birthday in June 2016 and has a combined 182 years+ experience in the leasing industry. We have a team dedicated to assist the catering industry, making us one of the only companies in the UK with a catering leasing specialist department.
