Tando keeps funding personal, so a plumbing and heating supplier deals with one account manager who understands seasonal stock and trade-account payment, and can move quickly, with decisions usually in three to five days. A credit record that has slipped does not rule a firm out.
If a supplier wanted to build stock before the winter rush but cash was tied up in installer accounts, a business loan could fund that buy so the range is ready for demand. Where the bigger drag is trade customers paying slowly on account, invoice finance can release the cash tied up in those invoices instead.
Secured Business Loans use assets like property or equipment as collateral to unlock higher borrowing limits and lower interest rates, giving your company predictable repayment terms and the flexibility to invest in long-term growth.
Unsecured Business Loans require no collateral, offering a rapid application and approval process. Although interest rates may be higher, this option lets businesses with strong credit profiles access funds quickly for working capital or expansion.
Start-Up Business Loans, often government-backed, provide new ventures with £500–£25,000 at fixed, affordable rates. They include mentorship and support services, helping entrepreneurs build credit, purchase essential equipment, and launch their businesses confidently.

Yes. Building stock ahead of the colder months is a core reason plumbing and heating suppliers borrow. A business loan provides the lump sum to fill the warehouse, then you repay over a fixed term as sales come through. Your account manager will size it around the buying and seasonal pattern you work to.
It depends on the problem. A business loan is a lump sum for any purpose, useful for buying stock ahead of demand. Invoice finance instead releases cash from unpaid trade invoices as you raise them. Many suppliers use both. Your account manager will compare them so the funding matches how your money actually moves.
Not by default. Tando funds firms that others avoid, including those with bad credit or past bounced payments. The decision rests on current trading and repayment ability, not the credit file alone. A clear explanation of any past issue, with steady recent sales, usually counts for more than the score when the case is reviewed.
Decisions usually come within three to five days, and simple cases can move within hours, with funds following soon after approval. The timing depends mainly on how fast you share accounts and statements. With a real account manager on the file, you can flag a buying deadline and get a realistic answer.
Facilities typically range from £75k to £500k, aimed at firms turning over around £200k or more, with no strict minimum. The right amount depends on the stock and accounts the funding supports and what the business can comfortably repay. It is built around your real trading rather than a headline number.
Yes. A business loan is general capital, so covering warehouse costs, wages and overheads is well within scope, alongside stock. As the funds are not tied to one purpose, you decide how to spread them. If the spend is purely on forklifts or vehicles, it is worth comparing asset finance too.
