we have an appetite for 'yes' agriculture... healthcare... property... engineering... manufacturing... technology... construction...

the beginning

In 2009, Dave & Sue Chapman set up Midlands Asset Finance to support businesses access finance to help them grow.

Having worked for one bank for most of their banking careers, they didn’t want to have to say ‘no’ to a customer with a great business plan.

Now, working with a large panel of banks and alternative funders, our ethos is an appetite to say ‘yes’ to customers across all market sectors.

the early years

In our early years, we worked as a small team from The Ropewalk in Nottingham, largely working with clients across the Midlands.

As we evolved and brought in new experienced financiers, we invested in premises in Derbyshire, just off Junction 28 of the M1 making it easier for us to see more customers across more of the UK.

the growth period

We began our expansion in 2016 by bringing in specialist teams to provide sector expertise to businesses in construction, healthcare, property finance, agriculture, renewables, fleet management and vehicle leasing.

the rebrand

In 2021, we dropped the Midlands Asset Finance brand name.
We’d grown to the point where we were no longer just operable in the Midlands and had a number of divisions that meant we no longer just did asset finance. And so, MAF Finance Group was born.
