It’s been nothing but success in recent months for Ringwood’s Dawsongroup Finance as the asset finance firm continues to smash targets and set records.
The new financial year got off to a great start this April, which has proven to be their best-performing month so far.
That’s not to say that things have quietened down since – it only took until July for the firm to surpass their annual profit goal, closing on average one deal every day.
It’s hardly a surprise considering that the team has grown by around 50 per cent since the start of 2023, with MD Kevin Wills at the helm.
“This year we’ve passed many exciting milestones”, said Kevin.
“I’m exceptionally proud of everything we have achieved.
“From bringing on new team members to keep up with the high demand, reaching internal goals well before the end of the financial year, and being named as finalists in multiple prestigious awards – 2023 may be one of the best years we have had yet.
“We’re totally engaged with and committed to our clients and suppliers, and are incredibly grateful to everyone for the continuing growth our strategy is delivering.”
Dawsongroup Finance’s client base has increased by 45 businesses this year, as many SMEs grapple with high interest rates and inflation.
It’s allowed them to take on four new salespeople and add another member to the operations department.
In the midst of all this growth, the team have been keen to give back to the local community – whether that be through sponsoring this year’s inaugural Ringwood Business Awards, or backing the annual Ringwood Carnival.
Kevin was also joined by 12 other directors recently for a 60km hike around the base of Mont Blanc, raising £58,000 for the Millimetres to Mountains charity.
Commercial Manager Matthew Bull added: “Watching Dawsongroup Finance grow and exceed expectations over the past five years has been incredibly rewarding.
“This financial year has been beyond exceptional, and I’m positive that it will continue to get better from here.
“Our team are working on several exciting things – including branching out even further into the renewable energy sector, which we’re expecting to bring incredible business for not only our division but the whole group.”
