FFero helps wine and spirits businesses access working capital by turning inventory into on-demand liquidity. Through its platform, clients can finance growth, boost profitability, and reduce risk by converting stock into financed liquidity as needed. For capital providers, the platform offers a more efficient, risk-managed way to deploy capital compared with traditional bilateral secured lending. Unlike general financing platforms, Fero focuses on the wine and spirits sector and uses its specialized risk management to match inventory with funding. The goal is to give wine and spirits businesses steady access to liquidity while giving lenders a clear, planful way to fund inventory and growth.

Fero and Bevica link-up 'significant step' to boost customers' operational efficiency. 07 August 2026 By Arabella Mileham Fintech platform Fero has partnered with drinks software management system Bevica to give both companies customers a more joined-up way to manage the operational and financial sides of their businesses. The connection of the two systems means stock data can pass between the two automatically, with Bevica customers gaining easier access to Fero's funding and supply chain support wherever they need it. This results in "a more complete platform for drinks business at every stage of growth," Fero said. Meanwhile, Fero customers can use the Bevica software to keep their operational data up to date without manual syncing or re-entering it, removing "an operational friction point", it said. According to Fero, the partnership marks a significant step forward for both companies, as it removes duplication from the system that has arisen from the "fragmented technology" that exists across the broader drinks industry without requiring a high level of customisation or cost to integrate. The link-up aims to reduce admin work for clients who use both platforms, with orders created in Bevica syncing automatically - and in real time - with Fero. Bevica explained that any orders are entered into its platform will be shared automatically with Fero, giving businesses a "clear, consistent view of their stock, sales and financial position at all times", as well as faster access to funding decisions when needed. Paul Wellingham, CEO of Bevica said the company had always been about helping drinks businesses run their day-to-day operations properly. "This integration with the Fero platform builds on that by removing manual steps and joining things up behind the scenes," he said. "This will give our customers access to funding and supply chain support without changing how they already work. It's a practical step that will make a real difference." Mitchel Fowler, CEO of Fero said he was excited to make the Fero platform available to Bevica's clients in the UK drinks trade, noting that it would add "working capital management and supply chain efficiency seamlessly [to] augment their existing systems and processes."
