March 2026 was the biggest month in GDFS history.
£2.5 million in lending. 61 deals completed. And eight five-star Trustpilot reviews from clients who trusted us with their business finance.
We're proud of those numbers — but the story behind them is what we really want to share.
It wasn't plain sailing
If you'd asked us at the end of the first week how March was going, we'd have given you a different answer. It was flat out to start — and then things went quiet. The kind of quiet that makes you wonder whether the month is going to deliver.
It didn't stay quiet for long.
£1.8 million of our total lending for March came in during the final two weeks of the month. The team put their heads down, worked through every enquiry, and got deals across the line. That's not luck — that's what happens when good people care about doing a good job.
A thank you to our clients
None of this happens without the businesses who choose to work with us. Whether you came to us for asset finance, a business loan, invoice finance, or something else entirely — thank you. We know you have choices, and we don't take your trust for granted.
If we helped your business invest, grow, or simply keep moving in March — this one's for you.
A thank you to our funders
Behind every deal is a lender who said yes. We're fortunate to work with a panel of 30+ specialist funders who understand business, move quickly, and trust us to bring them the right clients. March was a team effort across the whole panel, and we're grateful for every one of those relationships.
A thank you to the GDFS team
Gavin wants to say it plainly: the team at GDFS were outstanding in March. When the pipeline was full, they delivered. When things went quiet, they kept going. The results speak for themselves — but the effort behind them deserves to be said out loud.
Thank you.
