Yahoo10-07-2025
Skipton Business Finance has provided six-figure invoice finance to SG Brands, a Sheffield-based distributor of luxury and niche fragrances.
The funding will enable SG Brands to purchase stock from brand holders, enhance supplier partnerships, and widen its distribution network.
Specifics of the finance facility were not disclosed.
Founded by Samuel Gearing in 2019, SG Brands supplies fine fragrance labels to retailers such as Liberty and Fortnum & Mason.
The invoice factoring facility will also enable the company to invest in new opportunities with brands such as Portuguese beauty brand Benamôr and French fragrance house Bienaimé, addressing rising customer demand.
The deal between Skipton Business Finance and SG Brands was facilitated by Mark Millhouse from Oldham-based PMD Business Finance.
SG Brands director Samuel Gearing said: 'Securing the funding from Skipton Business Finance is a pivotal moment for SG Brands. It gives us the capacity to scale our stockholding and develop relationships with our brand partners.
'We chose to work with Skipton not just because of their flexible funding model, but because they took the time to understand our business and what makes it special. Their support means we can now pursue our growth plans with greater certainty and ambition.'
Skipton Business Finance North-West and Midlands regional sales director Jim Furey said: 'We are delighted to support SG Brands at the start of this exciting growth chapter. Samuel and his team have built a distinctive and highly respected business in the fine fragrance sector, and our funding will enable them to respond to increasing demand while safeguarding the operational ability of the company.'
'At Skipton, we work with an incredibly diverse client base, from traditional industries to innovative niche sectors, and SG Brands is a great example of that range. We are proud to be backing them through this period of growth and looking forward to being on that journey with them.'
Skipton Business Finance specialises in providing invoice factoring and discounting solutions tailored for SMEs across various sectors.
In March, the company provided a £350,000 invoice discounting facility to Invision Recruitment in Bishop's Stortford.
The funds enabled Invision to expand its permanent placement services in the construction and civil engineering sectors.
Last year, Skipton Business Finance reported a 13% increase in pre-tax profit, reaching £10.8m ($14.6m).
The company also noted a 19% rise in collective turnover among its clients, from £2.1bn to £2.5bn.

Greenfood majority stake changes hands

Swedish investment firm Fidelio is set to buy Nordic Capital's majority stake in fresh-produce group Greenfood. Financial terms were not disclosed. Fidelio has held a minority stake in Greenfood for almost 15 years. A Greenfood spokesperson confirmed to Just Food that management and employees now hold the remaining minority shares. In a statement issued yesterday (28 July), Greenfood said the transaction will support its 'accelerated international expansion'. 'The company's capital structure, financial commitments and obligations remain unchanged,' it added. Greenfood, known for its 'healthy, affordable, and sustainable' food, operates in both Europe and the US. The Swedish company supplies fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as ready-made meals. It operates through three divisions: Fresh Produce, salad-bar business Picadeli and Food Solutions. Since 2016, when Nordic Capital became the majority shareholder, Greenfood said it has nearly doubled its revenues to Skr5.6bn ($580.3m). David von Laskowski, the CEO of Greenfood Group & Picadeli, said, 'As we turn this exciting page together with Fidelio, we are confident in our ability to further accelerate growth, foster innovation, and strengthen our positive impact.' The deal is slated for completion in the second half of the year, contingent on regulatory approvals and other standard closing conditions. Greenfood in its current form came about in 2015 through the merger of Picadeli and STC Greenfood. The following year, it was acquired by Stockholm-based private-equity firm Nordic Capital. In 2019, the company bought the fresh cut produce business of Finland's Apetit. The company supplies customers in Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Norway, Estonia, Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg, France and the US, with sourcing operations in Spain.

Trump tariffs live updates: US, EU rush to finalize deal as 90-day extension of China trade truce likely

The US and EU are racing to lock in the final details of their major new trade deal before Friday's deadline. But critics say its a rushed fix, with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz calling the outcome unsatisfying, while France's Bayrou dubbed the EU's 'submission' a 'dark day'. President Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced Sunday that the US and EU had agreed to the framework of a trade deal that included a baseline tariff rate of 15% on EU goods imported into the US. Trump, called the deal 'the biggest of them all,' while von der Leyen said that "15% is not to be underestimated, but it is the best we could get." EU reaction to the agreement was decidedly mixed, with Germany and France offering perhaps the strongest criticism. Trump also confirmed on Monday that 15% represents the new standard for tariff negotiations. 'For the world, I would say it'll be somewhere in the 15% to 20% range,' Trump said in Scotland as he met with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Meanwhile, another round of US-China talks kicked off this week, with markets hoping for another extension of the countries' trade truce. The South China Morning Post, a Hong Kong-based English-language newspaper, reported that is seen as the likely outcome. This was confirmed by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick who said a 90-day China trade truce extension is likely. Last week, Trump said that letters dictating tariff rates for over 200 countries would go out soon while his administration works to clinch deals with larger trade partners. Trump said the US hasn't had a "lot of luck" with Canada and suggested he may impose threatened 35% levies on goods not covered by the US-Canada-Mexico trade agreement. Trump also touted a deal with Japan that included a $550 billion investment in the US and a 15% tariff on goods imported into the US from Japan. Japan said Tuesday its trade deal with the US eased policy uncertainty but warned US trade actions could still weigh on its economy. Meanwhile, US Trade Representative Jamison Greer said "more negotiations" would be needed with India, just days before the Aug. 1 deadline.

How To Earn $500 A Month From Visa Stock Ahead Of Q3 Earnings

Visa Inc. (NYSE:V) is set to report third-quarter earnings after the closing bell on Tuesday, July 29. The report follows news that Japan's Fair Trade Commission has taken its first administrative action against the credit card industry, targeting Visa Worldwide Pte Ltd.—a Singapore-based subsidiary—for alleged monopolistic practices. Analysts expect the San Francisco-based company to report earnings of $2.85 per share, up from $2.42 per share a year ago. Revenue is projected to reach $9.85 billion, compared to $8.9 billion in the same quarter last year, according to Benzinga Pro. Amid heightened attention on Visa, some investors are also eyeing its dividend potential. The company currently offers a dividend yield of 0.66%, paying 59 cents per share semi-annually, or $2.36 annually. So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly? For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $180,579 or around 508 shares. To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend ($2.36 in this case). So, $6,000 / $2.36 = 2,542 ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $2.36 = 508 shares ($100 per month). View more earnings on V Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time. How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock's current price. For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is currently priced at $50, the dividend yield would be 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40). Similarly, changes in the dividend payment can impact the yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, so will the yield. V Price Action: Shares of Visa fell 0.4% to close at $355.47 on More: Image: Shutterstock UNLOCKED: 5 NEW TRADES EVERY WEEK.
