*These are illustrative examples based on realistic Australian scenarios, not specific client cases.
Transport Fleet Expansion
The Scenario
A growing logistics company needed to add 5 new prime movers to their fleet to service a major new contract with a national retailer.
The Challenge
Traditional bank finance would take 4-6 weeks for approval. The contract required vehicles on the road within 3 weeks.
The Solution
Fleet finance was arranged through a specialist transport lender who understood the industry. Pre-approval was achieved within 48 hours.
The Outcome
All 5 trucks were financed and on the road within 2 weeks. The contract was secured, and the business now services the retailer across three states.

Manufacturing Equipment Upgrade
The Scenario
A Sydney-based food manufacturer needed to upgrade their production line with new packaging equipment costing $420,000.
The Challenge
The business wanted to preserve working capital for inventory and didn't want to provide property as security for an equipment purchase.
The Solution
A chattel mortgage facility was structured, secured solely against the equipment with a 5-year term and fixed monthly payments.
The Outcome
The new equipment increased production capacity by 40% without impacting cash reserves. The business claimed an instant asset write-off in their tax return.

Farm Equipment with Seasonal Payments
The Scenario
A broadacre farmer in Western NSW needed a new header valued at $650,000 before the upcoming harvest season.
The Challenge
Standard monthly repayments did not suit the seasonal nature of farm income. The farmer needed flexibility around harvest periods.
The Solution
Equipment finance was arranged with a seasonal payment structure - reduced payments during off-season and larger payments aligned with harvest cash flow.
The Outcome
The farmer secured the new header in time for harvest. Repayments matched income timing, improving cash flow management significantly.
