the Fingal’s Bakery Opportunity
Learn more about Fingal’s and why it’s worth investing
This is your chance to be part of the fast-growing artisan REAL BREAD movement, and London's great food scene. You can invest from as little as £50, in return for equity shares in the company(1). The more you invest, the greater the share.
Every £1 we raise reduces how much we have to borrow from the bank, and keeps our costs down, so we can offer you an even better bakery and shop!
To take advantage of this exclusive opportunity simply indicate the value of your investment below. We’ll then issue you with your very own share agreement which sets out your share in Fingal’s future.
Remember that HMRC have granted advance assurance that this investment will qualify as part of the SEIS tax relief scheme(2), which is brilliant!
Feel free to contact us if you have any questions and want to see our Business Plan, or Financial Forecast: chris@fingalsbakery.com
Notes:
1. Equity share calculated on a sliding scale, based on value of investment pledged.
2. This means you'll get 50% tax relief on your investment, but investing on behalf of a company will not qualify for SEIS tax relief.
