      El proyecto

      Spartan is a alternative funder and NBFI [Non-Bank Finance Institution] that focuses on financing SMEs in South Africa. 

      Based in Johannesburg, Spartan offers 3 categories of financing for Small & Medium Businesses to support their growth. These 3 categories are: 

      1. Working Capital Finance
      2. Specialised Asset Finance
      3. Growth Finance

      These finance options address the majority of SMEs’ finance needs - that are not usually met by traditional funders.

      Working Capital Finance is offered via Bridging Finance [1-3 month revolving facility] or Medium-Term Loan [6-12 month term] mechanisms - both being solutions that assist businesses with solving growth related cash flow challenges e.g. periodic large contracts or projects that are either short or long term in nature.

      Specialised Asset Finance [24-60 months term] is offered for acquiring any type of tangible or intangible asset or equipment to be utilized in productive growth - and where traditional funders are uncomfortable with the nature of these items. Some examples include:

      • Machinery Finance for all machinery types e.g. manufacturing, warehousing, agro-processing, mining support, construction, engineering, etc
      • Technology Finance, Software Finance and any innovative technology driven item
      • Fit-Out Finance for fitting out building interiors
      • Logistics vehicles and Yellow Metal equipment

      Growth Finance [24-60 months term] is offered for expansion initiatives that required a structured finance solution with a combination of the above finance mechanisms.

      Spartan is focussed on SMEs in a growth context and not a start-up nor distress context.

      Impacto

      SMEs are crucial to the economy in South Africa, yet they struggle to access the capital they need to grow and thrive. Spartan Impact Finance provides funding to growing South African SMEs through their digitized financing process. They understand the entrepreneur's business and needs, and help strengthen skills, knowledge, and efficiency to run a growing business successfully. 

      Easy access to working capital increases productivity and job creation, both necessary conditions to reduce poverty. A formal job creates impact on income and enables regularity of wages, allowing a family to plan for the future, save money, and improve access to credit, housing, and children’s education. It can lift unskilled workers out of poverty and allow skilled workers to enter the middle class. Therefore financing SMEs with growth potential is one of the key ingredients for inclusive growth.
