Skyrocketing sales

In 2022 , the outdoor retailer was awarded a £ 2.7 million funding package from HSBC UK , backed by UK Export Finance ( UKEF ), to support its international growth . Indeed , with the funds , the company intends to purchase more stock to meet an increasing demand for its products in both the UK and beyond , as well as helping to fund the launch of a new footwear range .

Since the pandemic , more and more people are embracing the idea of going outdoors . And it ’ s not overly surprising when so many were cooped up for months at a time . But that ’ s something

Alpkit is determined to facilitate .

The more outdoors , the brand suggests , the better – and that ’ s good for business . Alpkit has seen its sales skyrocket : cycling , outdoor swimming , and technical gear lines have all shown impressive growth . In the

near future , and hopefully accelerated by these funds , the British business intends to expand its other product ranges and digital trading capability worldwide . In response to receiving the finance package , David Hanney , Chief Executive at Alpkit , said : “ This deal will help accelerate our growth as we look to capitalize on a significant increase in demand domestically and internationally . It also means we can invest in innovation to create lower impact , long-lasting technical outdoor gear that is both repairable and recyclable .

“ HSBC UK has stood side by side with us ,” he went on , “ providing support through the good and the challenging times . Our Relationship Manager at the bank , Anthony Greenfield , has been a constant source of support and reassurance , which has been immensely valuable .”
