Advance your clothing store

The apparel and footwear market in the United Kingdom is growing steadily every year. With approximately 12,215 stores specialising in the retail of clothing, the market revenue is expected to reach £57.84 billion in 2022.

In 2020, many high street retail businesses in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland had to close their doors as the government imposed a national lockdown on 'non-essential' businesses to keep coronavirus (COVID-19) under control.

As the pandemic continues, it has dramatically changed the way people shop. With the closures of high street clothing stores unpredictable, business owners have had to adapt quickly and move their trade online. It has been a challenging year, but the good news is that we can support you through these difficult times.

A clothes & fashion business cash advance is a flexible and easy way to raise funding for your business. It's different from a traditional business bank loan as it works with your customer card sales either through your handheld PDQ machine or online store. You can borrow from £3000 up to a maximum of £300,000, and you simply pay back the advance via an agreed percentage of your future card takings.

So, if you're a small shop selling fashionable clothes, shoes or accessories and accept card payments from customers, we can help. Apply online or give our friendly team a call to get your FREE no-obligation quote.

Business Loans for Clothing Shops - Customer shopping in local clothing and shoe store

Clothing store business loan for any purpose, such as:

  • Buying the latest fashionable clothes and accessories in bulk or purchasing seasonal goods such as swimwear
  • Help support short term cash-flow problems
  • Pay your tax bill on time
  • New retail equipment, garment racks, clothes rails, mannequins and other shopfitting supplies
  • Point of sale (POS) displays or new signage
  • Open an online shop and expand your sales reach globally
  • Marketing and advertising budget to increase footfall
  • Training and recruiting new staff and shop workers
  • Emergency maintenance and repairs

As the funding is based on card sales, the amount you can borrow will depend on your average monthly card turnover. For example, if your clothes store turns over £10,000 a month via customer card sales, you could borrow up to 100% of that amount, so £10,000. It is possible to get advanced up to 150% of your average monthly cards takings.

Repayments are simple. You will agree on a small percentage of your daily credit and debit card takings that you will repay daily until the amount repaid in full. So you only repay when your customers purchase from you using their card via your PDQ machine. Cash sales are not taken into account.

It's flexible and unsecured, meaning if your clothes and fashion store has a slow week, you back less. If you have a great week, you'll pay it back quickly as more sales will be going through your card machine. There are absolutely no fixed monthly terms. It simply works alongside your business performance.

Getting a business loan for your clothes store is fast. On average, approval can take a few hours, and funding into your account can take up to 5 days.

We help all types of clothing stores that operate either on the high street or online, including:

  • Designer & Boutiques
  • Outdoor, Sports & Active Wear
  • Men's Suits & Formalwear Specialists
  • Baby & Children's Clothing Shop
  • Wedding Dress Shops
  • Shoes & Footwear
  • Vintage & Retro Fashion
  • Second Hand Clothing Stalls
  • School Uniform Specialists
  • Alternative Clothing Store
  • Workwear

The qualifying criteria are basic, and providers only require that your business:

  • Is a sole trader or limited business based in the UK
  • Accepts card payments over £3k per month (in-store or online)
  • Has been trading for at least 3 months

Yes, you can get a business loan to help fund or launch your own clothing line. You can use the funding for any purpose, such as design, printing, embroidery, stock purchase, manufacturing and much more!
