Warren’s Removals and Storage secured funding from the Midlands Engine Investment Fund’s (MEIF) MEIF WM Small Business Loan Fund, which managed by BCRS Business Loans.
The deal was also backed by the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS), which has now been replaced by the Recovery Loan Scheme.
Funding will allow Warren’s Removals and Storage to move into larger commercial premises, allowing the firm to streamline its operations by bringing four separate sites under one roof. Additional vehicles will also be purchased, and ten new jobs are set to be created to achieve growth plans.
Established in 2014 by Warren Leggett, Warren’s Removals and Storage specialise in providing removal and storage services for both domestic and commercial clients.
Warren Leggett, founder and managing director of Warren’s Removals and Storage, said:
“We are delighted to have secured this £150,000 funding boost to take Warren’s Removal and Storage to the next level.
“Despite being hit with job cancellations and postponements during the first Coronavirus lockdown, the subsequent surge in house sales resulted in a very strong successive period for us.
“We are receiving a strong number of enquiries for future jobs, which is a result of our web presence and word-of-mouth recommendations from customers who appreciate our full-service approach to removal. We always make sure we go the extra mile by removing and detaching furniture, wall-mounted TVs, pictures, and even appliances.
“Securing this investment will allow us to kickstart important growth plans that will ultimately allow us to capitalise on this strong demand, as demonstrated by our confirmed order book, and we thank BCRS for making this possible.”
