Lending to businesses in your city
Leicester has one of the most commercially diverse economies outside London, with particular depth in textiles, wholesale garments, food manufacturing and distribution. Companies in these sectors commonly operate on extended buyer credit terms while needing to pay suppliers promptly — a structural gap that short-term credit is well suited to bridge.
The city also has a sizeable professional and business services community, including accountancy practices, marketing agencies and technology firms. These companies tend to invoice on completion, creating month-end cash bunching and periods of tighter liquidity between project phases.
Leicester's retail and hospitality sector — particularly around the Golden Mile and the city centre — faces seasonal demand swings that can compress margins at predictable points in the year. For incorporated companies in these trades, having access to fast, short-term working capital without a revolving commitment can make those periods significantly more manageable.
Credicorp does not lend against a postcode — the decision is identical wherever your company trades. A company registered in Leicester city centre, Oadby, Wigston or Hinckley is assessed on exactly the same basis as any other UK limited company.
Which product fits?
A fixed-term loan suits Leicester's trade-heavy limited companies because the cost is known from day one, the term is capped and there is no revolving facility to manage — and no personal guarantee is ever required from the directors.
Credicorp Slice lets your limited company spread one specific trade bill or supplier invoice across 3–4 weekly payments at a flat 6% fee, without touching your main working capital line.

Common questions
Can any Leicester business apply, or are there restrictions?
Only incorporated limited companies and LLPs registered in the UK are eligible. Sole traders, consumer borrowers and unincorporated partnerships cannot apply. Trading in Leicester, or any other city, does not affect the rate offered — Credicorp does not price by geography.
Is a personal guarantee required from a company director?
No personal guarantee is required. Credicorp extends credit to the limited company as a legal entity. Directors are not asked to accept personal liability in any form.
How long does a credit decision take for a Leicester company?
Credicorp returns a decision on the same working day the application is received. There is no staged approval process — the assessment is completed and communicated the same day.
