The companies are working in conjunction to offer a low finance start-up scheme to assist SMEs with the purchase of Hitachi's mini excavators. The scheme requires no payments for the first 90 days (3 months) of the agreement, after which normal payments will resume.
John Phillipou, MD of SME lending at Paragon, said: "During these uncertain times, it is key that we support businesses in any way we can and this scheme is a great way to allow customers to begin making purchases with the peace of mind of having very low initial payments."
Mark Turnham, national sales & marketing director at Hitachi, added: "HCM UK are pleased to able to extend this finance offer to our valued customers to help them through this difficult time."
