Business lending across the UK

Business lending in the East of England

The East of England combines world-class science and technology around Cambridge with agriculture and food production across Norfolk, Suffolk and the Fens, busy ports such as Felixstowe and Harwich, and London-facing commerce in Essex and Hertfordshire. Credicorp lends to UK limited companies and LLPs only, for genuine business purposes — never to individuals or sole traders.

A region of contrasts

The "Cambridge cluster" of life-sciences, biotech and deep-tech firms sits alongside one of the country's most important agri-food economies and a major freight gateway at Felixstowe. Each has its own cash-flow rhythm — research-led companies managing grant and contract timing, growers managing harvest cycles, and importers managing port and supplier costs.

Legitimate uses we see

  • Funding equipment, plant or vehicles for an agri-food or logistics company.
  • Bridging the period between a large contract starting and the first payment.
  • Buying seasonal stock or inputs ahead of demand.
  • Covering supplier deposits while a customer invoice is outstanding.

Flex or Slice

Credicorp Flex is a drawdown facility for recurring needs; Credicorp Slice is a fixed-term loan for a defined one-off cost. Your rate, amount and term are always those shown in your specific offer, not a published headline number.

Before you proceed

Credicorp is an exempt business lender outside the FCA consumer-credit regime, so the Financial Ombudsman Service and FSCS protections do not apply. We do not take personal guarantees from directors — the agreement is with your company. East of England limited companies should read the offer carefully and ask us anything before accepting.
