Investing in the net-zero economy

Explore the opportunities that becoming a Merchant Ports partner provides.

Work together with other partners to fund businesses; investment, infrastructure or property acquisition.

​

We work with innovative companies , consortiums and public sector bodies within our trade locations who are looking for funding to deliver their climate change objectives. 

​

Take advantage of Freeports, FreeTrade Zones or simply invest early into infrastructure projects or startups  and growth businesses.

We call the concept “ The escalator of business life” investors contribute a relatively small amount of funding which when aggregated creates a fund that is utilised for the mutual benefit of the members.

This fund is administered via our structured Small Alternative Investment Fund Management solution and provides a viable option for aggregated investment. 

​

We also look at opportunities for supported growth and investment , identifying opportunities within the main industrial clusters and newly formed Freeport locations in the UK and existing, but expanding locations abroad where additional public sector funding or incentives are available.
