Verona lays the groundwork to unlock its growth strategy
Verona
Verona is one of the UK's leading distributors of tiles, mosaics and outdoor flooring. They import natural stone and porcelain from countries in Asia and supply it to independent flooring companies. They also supply large, well-known DIY stores, including Wickes, Jewson and Travis Perkins.
We’ve provided Trade Finance, Foreign Exchange and working capital to support and unlock Verona's high-growth import strategy. This has helped Verona expand into new sectors and continue their growth plans.
When they were looking for a banking partner, Verona felt that our dedication to building a relationship with their team shone through. Maintaining quick turnaround times, and staying connected with them throughout, meant we stood out from our competitors.
Santander is the exact partner we were looking for. We used their experience and capabilities and it enabled us to focus on growth within new sectors.
From the very beginning Santander has been extremely responsive to our requests and supportive in understanding the requirements of our business going forward.
We look forward to a long and successful relationship.

Our finance facilities helped them manage currency risk and stand out in the market. It's also helped their cashflow, so they can make overseas purchases.
Verona is a fantastic business, and we’re delighted to work alongside them as their strategic banking partner. We’ve used our international connections and solutions to connect them globally and support their exciting growth plans. Verona continues to be a success story, and we look forward to an exciting future relationship.
