deal for security specialists
Henry Howard Finance (HHF) has won a lucrative £6m deal to
provide lease funding to clients of the security systems arm of
G4S, formerly Group 4 Securicor.
The deal covers the leasing of CCTV and access-control systems
for a number of sites throughout the UK.
Cardiff-based HHF specialises in vendor financing of electronic
point-of-sale, refrigeration, vending machines, office equipment as
well as the CCTV sector.
Mark Crook, HHF’s sales and marketing director, said: “The deal,
which covers the funding of asset values ranging from £20,000 up to
£100,000, is expected to boost HHF’s turnover by at least £6m with
the prospect of more to come.
He added: “It is great that an independent company can sign a
deal of this magnitude. We see it as a significant breakthrough. It
has tremendous possibilities for us and is something we can build
on to become an even bigger player in our market place.”
