Credicorp
Cash-flow lending for wholesale and distribution businesses
Wholesalers and distributors pay suppliers on short terms but sell to trade customers on 30 to 60 day terms — a structural working-capital gap that widens every time volume grows. Credicorp funds that gap for UK incorporated wholesale and distribution businesses — no personal guarantee, decisions most working days.
Recognise ony o thir?
If so, a Credicorp short-term business loan could help you bridge that gap.
- A bulk stock buy that has to clear before your trade customers settle their accounts
- An importer or supplier demanding payment before your own buyers pay you
- A seasonal volume spike that needs extra inventory on the shelf right now
- A slow-paying trade account leaving you short for your next supplier run

Credicorp Flex Recommendit for this sector
Wholesale buying repeats on a steady cycle, so a revolving facility fits better than a single advance. Credicorp Flex gives a limit of £50–£500 you can draw against for each purchase order, repay as your trade customers settle, and redraw for the next cycle — no reapplying. When a need is genuinely one-off, a fixed-term loan over 14–84 days is the simpler alternative.
• Revolvin leemit o £50–£500
• Draw, repey, redraw — wioot reapplyin
• Same-day leemit approval; instant draws efterhin

Yes. Credicorp lends to UK incorporated limited companies and LLPs in wholesale and distribution — importers, distributors and B2B traders supplying trade customers. Product category and territory are not pricing factors.
Do companies in this sector need to provide a personal guarantee?
No. All Credicorp lending is to the company — the UK limited company or LLP — as the sole obligor. There is no personal guarantee and no personal credit search on any director or shareholder.
