Who bizbritain is
A specialist broker, not a high-street bank.
bizbritain has been helping British founders fund their businesses since 2012. We're an FCA-authorised commercial finance brokerage and an official delivery partner of the British Business Bank's Start Up Loans scheme.
That covers businesses at every stage. The starter loan a high-street bank turns down (the £15,000 a barber needs for a chair, the £25,000 a mobile groomer needs for a van), we fund through the Government-backed scheme. The growth facility to hire staff or open a second site, we match to the right lender. And the £750k deal to buy a business outright, we have the relationships and the team to put it together.
Plain English, real humans, a named advisor on every case, and an Excellent 5* rating on Trustpilot.

Fantastic Experience
Brenda at BizBusiness has been absolutely brilliant. She made the whole Start Up Loan process feel simple and never once made me feel silly for asking questions. She was friendly, patient, and genuinely supportive from start to finish. Thanks to her help, I felt confident throughout the application and I’m so grateful for everything she’s done. I’d happily recommend her to anyone starting their business.

I had the most fantastic experience…
I had the most fantastic experience applying for a small business start up loan. Karen Sawyer was so incredibly helpful, understanding and patient with me. She worked so hard to help me complete all of the necessary paperwork. I honestly didn't think that I would be able to do it because of my dyslexia but I did! I am so so grateful for all of her help, I honestly couldn't have done it without her. I can't recommend highly enough!! Thank you so much again Karen! :-)
Brilliant support from Biz Britain...
We had a great experience with Biz Britain, who supported us in our 2nd Loan application, and our advisor, Adam, was brilliant throughout the process. He helped guide us towards what would be best for us, and made everything clear as to what information was needed to support our application. Biz Britain has helped make the next steps of our business journey become a reality. Highly recommended!
Business Startup Loan
We we a little unsure about the whole business loan process to start with, but Sonia Robinson really helped us to understand everything, was calm, professional and always on hand to answer any questions we had throughout the process. We highly recommend this scheme and going through bizbritain.com.
