Tips for Brewery Owners Around Business and Asset Finance
We understand that running a brewery, microbrewery, or distillery is a mix of passion, craft, and clever planning.
But beyond brewing great beer or spirits, there is the financial side that you can not ignore.
So, if you are looking to grow your business, stay competitive, and get the best business finance or asset finance options available — getting your house in order financially is key.
Here are some genuinely helpful tips every brewery owner or distillery business should consider, especially when thinking about business loans, investment, or expanding operations.
Keep Your Balance Sheet and Financial Statements Up to Date
One of the first things any lender like us will ask for is your most recent Balance Sheet and financial statements.
That is because these documents give us a clear picture of your business’s health — showing what you own, what you owe, and how well your business is managing your money – w which can help us get you better rates as as result.
As a result, you should regularly update these records, as this will also help you:
- Tracking your cash flow and working capital
- Spot areas where you are overspending (like energy costs or stock)
- Make informed decisions about your future investments or equipment purchases
Having accurate financials will also mean you are always ready when new funding options come up — whether it is for a brewery loan, equipment finance for a new Fermentation Vessel, or refinancing to take advantage of better interest rates.
Stay Aware of Changing Interest Rates and Energy Costs
As any brewery owner knows, brewing takes a fair bit of energy — literally.
With rising energy costs, managing your utility bills has become just as important as choosing the right hops and the right lender.
But it’s not just about the lights and kettles — interest rates play a massive role in what you will pay back on any loans or finance agreements as well.
A 1–2% increase might not sound like much, but over time it can add to your repayments.
As a result, one of the things we will help you with as your business finance partner is to help you understand the difference between the different interest rates we have available for you, and how a fixed-rate agreement to can help protect you against rate changes down the line.
This, in turn, will help to keep your costs predictable and your financial planning on track.
Review Your Business Model Regularly
Your business model isn’t something to set and forget. As your brewery or distillery grows, your goals might shift — maybe you want to target the export market, open a taproom, or expand your product ranges to suit changing consumer preferences.
Consequently, one of the things that you should be reviewing frequently, is if your business model has changed, as this can help you:
Stay competitive in the craft beer industry and wider beverage industry
Identify new revenue opportunities
Spot weaknesses before they become bigger issues
Consequently, lenders like us also want to see that you are adaptable and future-focused.
That is where having a strong business model in place will support you in getting better financial results, while positioning you as a good candidate for Business Loans as well.
Keep a Forward-Facing Financial Plan
Finally, always be thinking ahead.
A solid financial plan will include your short-term cash flow management, medium-term business growth goals, and long-term ambitions.
So, whether you are looking to improve your Net Profit, grow your Market Cap, or simply open a second location, having a plan in place makes everything feel more achievable.
You’ll want to include in your books here to help to make your life easier, and it easier when applying for finance:
Revenue forecasts
Expense tracking (especially fluctuating costs like energy and raw materials)
Capital investment needs — e.g., new tanks, vehicles, or packaging machinery
Ideas for reducing your debt or improving your credit score
