Acodent Dental Technology Centre has expanded over 15 years with help from Shire Leasing's flexible leasing options. Leasing allowed Acodent to invest over £78,000 in new technology and equipment while protecting its cash flow. This investment enabled Acodent to provide more efficient services and broaden its offerings to clients. Acodent's founder credits its long relationship with Shire Leasing for allowing the company to continuously invest and stay at the forefront of what it can offer clients.
