Modern Joinery in new partnership with British Business Funding

British Business Funding (BBF) is proud to announce a new, ongoing partnership with Modern Joinery News (MJN), designed to help joinery businesses across the supply chain access the right business finance – fast.

Through this collaboration, members of MJN will gain exclusive access to the best market options and rates available via British Business Funding. The goal is simple: to remove the stress and uncertainty from business finance and empower joinery businesses to grow with confidence.

“Finding the right business finance isn’t easy,” said John Carter, Managing Director of BBF. “Banks can be slow, rigid, and often say no. Comparison sites leave you doing all of the legwork yourself, and many lenders just showcase their best case examples – wasting your time and leaving you unsure if you’ve really secured the best deal. Through this partnership with Modern Joinery News, we’re giving timber and joinery businesses real solutions that are transparent, quick, and built for their needs.”

The partnership reflects a shared commitment to helping the timber & joinery community thrive – not just by connecting people, but by unlocking new opportunities for sustainable business growth.

“Helping our members grow and thrive is always our top priority,” said Sarah Ball, Publisher of Modern Joinery News. “Access to business finance is a crucial part of that support, particularly in today’s economic climate. We’ve been searching for the right finance partner for some time, and BBF really stood out thanks to their deep understanding of the construction sector. Their team made the process straightforward, and we’re happy to welcome them as a trusted partner.”

This partnership is now live, with ongoing access for MJN readers to tailored financial support and funding tools via British Business Funding’s platform.
