Payment Options Matter.

Capex is under enormous pressure in every company, every item is highly scrutinised before approval, and in competition from all the other departments that are requesting a capital purchase.

The world’s largest fast food company chose Oak for their franchises throughout Europe. They required a European leasing partner covering over 30 countries, with varied suppliers and equipment to provide their franchisee with a lease option for Menu Boards, Epos, Ovens, and other equipment.   They realised that payment options are crucial, and more so now than ever before.

A leading Danish company realised that offering a lease solution at the point of sale would help them overcome budget and Capex difficulties with their customers.  Leasing proved to reduce the sales cycle and keep margin.

Simply offering either monthly or quarterly leasing figures, helps the finance director, by simply making this a revenue purchase, not a capital purchase. Not rocket science, more like common sense. We can arrange a proven seamless integrated leasing portal to assist you in presenting a leasing solution to your customers.

If you are selling equipment in Europe, you need to have the ability to lease your equipment, your competitors will have that option.
