100% tax efficient
Every payment you make on a leasing agreement is up to 100% tax allowable and can help to reduce your businesses Corporation Tax bill, as long as you are in profit.
Improves cash flow
Leasing allows you to buy equipment that is important to your business and keep valuable cash in your bank that may be used for other projects that are not as tax efficient.
Unsecured borrowing
The equipment being leased is the only security that is normally required. No property is used as security, though Kennet Leasing need Directors' Guarantees for some limited companies.
Fixed rate payments
All payments are fixed for the period of the lease and are onlv affected by changes in VAT and capital allowances.
You can buy any heavy kitchen equipment item costing £1,000 plus VAT or over on a leasing arrangement through Kennet Leasing, our financial partners.

60 payments (5 years) £6,958.56
Maximum tax relief 40% (£2,783.42)
