Highlights flagship ‘Liquidity Solutions’ product as key growth driver
Zedvance Finance Limited, a leading provider of consumer and business financing solutions in Nigeria, has disbursed over ₦96 billion in funding to support commercial businesses across the country, reinforcing its growing position beyond retail lending and its commitment to bridging the financing gap for enterprises.
The company said its Commercial Solutions business, launched in 2025, has rapidly become a major driver of credit expansion within the organisation. Within its first year, the unit recorded one of the highest loan disbursement rates among financial institutions, supporting thousands of businesses and contributing to economic growth.
Zedvance’s funding interventions span several key sectors of the economy, including oil and gas, automotive, logistics, renewable energy, fintech, e-commerce, trade distribution value chains and agribusiness.
Through offerings such as working capital financing, invoice and purchase order financing, equipment and trade finance, as well as ecosystem-based solutions, the company enables businesses to access liquidity for asset acquisition, buy-now-pay-later (BNPL) platforms and cross-border credit lines for imports and exports. These solutions are designed to support business expansion and strengthen operational resilience in Nigeria’s dynamic economic environment.
Speaking on the importance of flexible and tailored financing, Group Managing Director of Zedcrest Group, Adedayo Amzat, CFA, said Zedvance operates a model deliberately structured to bridge financing gaps and support enterprise growth.
“We are proud of our accomplishments so far, particularly the impact we have made in sectors that are critical to economic development. For instance, through solar and asset on-lending initiatives, we have expanded energy access and improved income opportunities for gig workers by financing mobility asset platforms across Nigeria,” Amzat said.
“Because our customers are at the heart of our business, we intentionally designed our flagship product, Liquidity Solutions, to enable faster credit delivery across high-growth sectors. The results have been remarkable, with many of our clients achieving significant growth.”
Amzat added that Liquidity Solutions provides tailored financing structures such as inventory financing, invoice financing and import financing, enabling businesses to optimise cash flow, accelerate turnover and scale operations with confidence.
Also speaking, Ayooluwa Oladimeji, Acting Executive Director, Commercial Solutions, said Zedvance combines technology, product innovation, sector expertise and risk-moderated structures to deploy diverse funding solutions.
According to him, the company offers multi-currency credit lines, BNPL facilities and equipment financing across sectors including automotive, renewable energy, manufacturing, fintech and trade distribution.
“In 2025 alone, the Zedvance Commercial Solutions business recorded tremendous growth, driven by strong partnerships and a rapidly expanding portfolio. We are proud to have supported businesses such as Shekel Mobility, Tradegrid, Sapphire and CredPal, among other ecosystem partners,” Oladimeji said.
“Beyond these successes, our focus remains on strengthening credit access across Africa’s commercial ecosystems to enable businesses scale with confidence and resilience.”
Building on this momentum, Zedvance said it is targeting over ₦250 billion in funding disbursements in 2026, with expansion plans covering sectors such as off-grid power, smart devices and home equipment, vehicle dealerships and mobility platforms, agribusiness, manufacturing, consumer and industrial goods distribution, and hospitality.
The company noted that the expansion aligns with its mission to accelerate enterprise growth by providing faster and broader access to credit across Africa.
Zedvance Finance Limited, a subsidiary of Zedcrest Group, is a Nigerian financial services company providing business and retail financing solutions. Since its establishment in 2014, the company says it has empowered over one million Nigerians, supporting financial inclusion and contributing to economic development.
