My Start Up Loan provided the funds I needed to be able to get my business up and running, something I’d dreamt of for a long time. The loan allowed me to purchase all the stock I needed to open the shop, and I’ve also now been able to expand the business further to facilitate online orders and delivery, as well as opening every evening as a wine bar in addition to the shop. To put it simply, without the financial backing I received from the British Business Bank I just wouldn’t have been able to get Feral Pigs Wine off the ground. - Dave Cushley
