Invoice discounting firm looks to up its profile

18/03/2008

An invoice discounting business based in the north-west of England has revealed its plans to relocate as part of an effort to raise its profile.

The boldly named Ultimate Finance company is planning to move from its current home in Wilmslow in Cheshire to a new base in Manchester, where much of the region's business is conducted.

Ultimate's invoice discounting customers tend to be small and medium-sized service providers, wholesalers and manufacturers and the firm is keen to establish greater prominence in the local business sector.

The company's northern managing director Andrew Porter told the Manchester Evening News: "If we want to be a serious player, then we need to ensure that we have a high profile in this vibrant market."

Ultimate is a member of the UK's Factors and Discounters Association and it stated aim as a company is to offer a "genuine point of difference in a competitive market".
