“We are delighted to have delivered to City Electrical Factors a credit solution that is tailored towards their strategic business initiatives,” said Julian Osborne, director with Wells Fargo Capital Finance UK Originations. “The flexibility of our ABL product is a great fit to support CEF’s continued growth.”
