“We have found NPIF - FW Capital to be an extremely helpful funding partner, with a straightforward and efficient process in place to help us get the investment we need.”

David Evans, Director, Stone UK 

A specialist supplier of natural, high quality English stone sourced from quarries in Yorkshire and Lancashire, Stone UK received a £100,000 follow-on investment from NPIF – FW Capital Debt Finance, as part of the Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund.

The Lancashire-based company will use the funding to support ongoing growth including the innovation of new product lines and the creation of four new roles. The investment is the second round of FW Capital funding for Stone UK, following on from a £250,000 loan in 2017.

The first NPIF investment phase has now completed with the British Business Bank launching the Northern Powerhouse Investment Fund II in March 2024.
