Stuart Johnston , Director at Big Brands UK Ltd

In 2022 when we set up our business in UK my Finance Director suggested we look at HSBC as the Relationship Manager James Farrands had been a huge help to him in his previous company and spoke very highly of him

His decision to do contact James and work with HSBC at that time was instrumental in managing our growth which was substantial and the advice we received on a whole range of potential funding options was exceptional.

We cannot thank James enough for the work he did to understand our business and create the correct financial instruments that we needed to run our business.

We know James will be a huge success in his new role as he spends time to understand your needs as a business and his experience will be invaluable to companies going forward.

Alan Beattie, FD at Juniper Catering Limited T/A Flour Pot Bakeries

James has been a fantastic help over the years helping us with planning the funding to help grow from a couple of small bakeries to a multi-site commercial business.

He has always been keen to be involved from the outset of new projects offering us insight and options so we can make the best strategic decision for our business
