Recent deal: How We Helped an Irish Contractor Unlock Growth Finance for European Projects

At BusinessLoans.ie, we work with ambitious Irish businesses across construction, contracting, engineering, and manufacturing — helping them access fast, flexible business loans to fuel growth.

One of our clients — a specialist contractor with operations across Ireland and mainland Europe — recently returned to us for additional funding. Back in late 2024, we arranged a €150,000 unsecured working capital facility to support mobilisation for a large international project.

Now, with a new contract underway and a growing pipeline of work, we’ve just refinanced and increased their funding to €250,000 — giving them the cashflow needed to keep moving without disruption.

Why Working Capital Matters for Irish SMEs

Many Irish businesses face a common challenge: upfront project costs and delayed payments.

Whether you’re a:

  • Contractor bidding on public or private sector tenders

  • Engineering or manufacturing firm supplying equipment or services

  • Construction business managing multiple jobs across locations

  • Exporter handling logistics, staffing, and materials abroad

… the gap between doing the work and getting paid can stretch your cashflow — especially when scaling up.

That’s where flexible business finance makes the difference.

What We Delivered

✅ Refinance and boost of original loan from €150K to €250K
✅ Fast turnaround based on company performance — not just credit history
✅ Funding tailored to international project requirements
✅ No delays, no rigid repayment terms, no personal guarantees required (in this case)

This is what growth finance is meant to do: bridge the funding gap so Irish SMEs can win bigger contracts, manage costs, and keep building.
