A MARQUEE company is looking to increase its stock after securing a £30,000 business loan from Finance Yorkshire.
Pinnacle Marquees, based in Market Weighton, is also looking to fund a new lorry and potentially take on new staff.
Managing director Tim Betteridge, who founded the business five years ago, and is pictured above right with Finance Yorkshire investment manager Ian Atkinson, said: "We’ve grown every year as a business and have got to the point where we want to push on and invest further in the company.
"The capital funding from Finance Yorkshire will enable us to buy more equipment to satisfy the sales that are coming through and rather than hire vehicles, we will be able to buy one of our own.
"We’re also potentially looking at taking on more permanent staff as we grow over the next three to five years,"
Mr Atkinson added: "Pinnacle has established itself as a strong brand in the event marquee hire sector and is now well placed to take advantage of new opportunities to grow the company and increase employment."
