Growth Capital: fund their ambitious scaling plans
Secto provide highly skilled labour to Intel on these data center projects, however, Secto pay their staff in advance of repayment from Intel, causing a timing issue from a working capital perspective. As the project schedule ramped up, the requirement for labour increased, as did the working capital requirement.
Secto were also undertaking a scaling programme and with new projects taking place, they required growth capital to fuel these plans. Having the working capital in place to fund the beginning of these large-scale projects was a fundamental element in the success of any future scaling.
