"The Business Enterprise Fund team are approachable, knowledgeable and innovative professionals who proved to be the catalyst that turned our vision of Palm Cove Society into a reality. They helped us create a strong
foundation ensuring future sustainability through their excellent business management
and dynamic mentoring facilities." Yvonne Hall - Director Palm Cove Society
Over 180 new businesses created since November 2004
"People have said the loan is costly, but in my view when I consider the immense amount of support I have had from the mentoring and through the Bradford Chamber and its services, then the loan is in reality very low cost and the support of a far higher quality and level than you would ever get from any other funder." Karlis Obrams – Xvista
Approved loans of over £3.5 million
"The Business Enterprise Fund provided us with a loan to expand our business. Once we become eligible for mainstream finance they assisted us in applying for a loan from a high street bank. Their help has been invaluable." Matt Firth – Rig Out
Over 300 new jobs created
“The Business Enterprise Fund sourced a favourable invoice factoring deal for us to get the company’s cash flowing again. We are now on target to smash our first year target of £150,000. Without the Business
Enterprise Fund we would not have made it.” Paschal Duran – Salts Security Systems
Jobs safeguarded across the region
“The mentoring was very valuable to me because it gave me someone who could
talk the talk with me, someone to help me in all points of my development, the highs
and the lows. The most valuable part of the mentoring was the knowledge and contacts
that my mentor brought to the table. I would recommend anyone to get a mentor
from BEF, it is like getting a business partner. ” Pierre Nortje – Capcan
Expansion of the Fund to cover all of West and North
Yorkshire
“The Business Enterprise Fund has been fantastic. We found the process very straight forward and we were kept well informed of each step. The book keeping side of things was a real worry to us but after working with the Fund’s bookkeeper she has shown us how to control the books. I feel more confident and I always feel I am able to give a call if in need. Our business has got off to a great start.” Dennis & Collette Hill – Fighting Fit
190 loans approved
“The Mentor has been an absolute star and even when we have faced difficulties, he
has been there to guide us safely through.” Dr Hanna Aslam - Food Republic
