Business Owner
Gavin is an experienced finance professional with over 20 years in the business-to-business finance market. Having worked for major finance companies including BNP Paribas Lease Group and Hitachi Capital Business Finance, he established Gavin Dixon Finance Solutions Ltd in 2013. Specialising in tailored finance solutions, Gavin supports businesses across agriculture, construction, haulage and engineering — with a deep understanding of each sector's individual requirements.
Gavin Dixon Finance Solutions (GDFS) is a family-run finance broker based in Bridport, Dorset. We help businesses across the South West and throughout the UK secure the funding they need to start, grow and thrive.
We're not tied to any single lender or product. Instead, we search a panel of 30+ specialist funders to find the right solution for your specific situation — whether that's asset finance for new equipment, invoice finance to ease cash flow, or a business loan to fund growth.
Our FCA authorisation means you can trust the advice you receive. And because we work on a personal, one-to-one basis, you'll always have direct access to the broker handling your case.
What drives us
We're not tied to any lender. That means we always search the whole market for the deal that's right for you — not the easiest one to sell.
You'll deal with the same broker from first call to funds in your account. No call centres, no case numbers — just a real person who knows your business.
With over two decades in commercial finance and a 30+ lender panel, we've seen (and solved) virtually every funding challenge a business can face.
