We pride ourselves on working closely with our customers to find solutions for their funding needs through innovative and strategic thinking. We offer a simple solution to access short-term secured funding, where liquidity is required in the fastest possible time. We offer facilities from R1,000,000 up to R10,000,000 with terms from as short as 6 months right up to 10 years. We offer one of the fastest application-to-loan turnaround times, with an average of 5 working days to conclude.
Our business loans range between R1m and R10million per deal. It all depends on how much you need to make the most of current opportunities, grow your business and fund the future you deserve.
We offer customised payment structures and terms to suit your business’s needs and cash flow with interest-only loans, partial capital payments or, alternatively, a residual at the end of the loan period.
We have worked with businesses on 4 continents including 10 African countries. With over 100 years of combined industry experience, we know what it takes to support you in reaching your goals.
You need additional cash flow to buy stock, equipment, raw materials or fund growth.

Your profile is safe with us. When you link your bank account during the application process, neither our service provider nor Geddes Capital have permission to perform any payments, transfers or other transactions using your information. We will see your transactions as read-only. Geddes Capital uses your financial data for the sole purpose of assessing whether you qualify for business finance.
Our approach to funding is future-focused, and our process is fast and creative with transparent costing. We offer payments that suit your business’s cash flow needs and are happy to work with you to structure something customised for you.
When applying for a business loan, we prefer using our digital link, you can upload your latest 3 month’s formal bank statements in PDF format. Normally, these can be downloaded for free from your online banking platform. Please be advised that scanned copies are unsuitable as we will not be able to extract the data automatically. This will likely result in the approval process taking longer.
Although we are super flexible, we do have some base requirements. Your business must have a minimum annual turnover of R2 000,000, and your business must have been actively trading for at least one year.
