GGI Office Furniture are one of the most respected and well-known brands of office furniture in the UK. There’s a chance you’re sitting on one of their chairs right now!

Ever keen to continue providing the best service to their customers, GGI contacted Johnson Reed about helping to secure the finance for a new software accounting package and new IT hardware (including brand new desktops and servers). We were able to secure £60,000 worth of equipment finance for GGI to overhaul their ageing IT systems, based on a fixed repayment deal.

We were able to finance the total solution for our client, which was agreed within 38 hours of receiving the company information. We utilised our Tier 1 funder to secure marketing-leading range of IT hardware and software, an option which will benefit GGI greatly as it means that the finance will be tax-deductible and at a fixed rate throughout the term.
