Finance leasing

The purchase of large professional kitchen equipment is always an investment. In order to make the purchase easier, by spreading out your investment costs, we offer you the option of financing leasing. Leasing is a flexible and affordable form of financing that can be used to finance both projects and individual equipment. With financing leasing, the need for a large one-time capital investment can be eliminated, as the lease costs are evenly distributed over the period of use of the equipment. Leasing financing is suitable for private companies as well as for financing public procurement. 

When applying for leasing financing, you do not need additional collateral – instead, the equipment you lease serves as collateral. In addition, the lease is tax deductible. A fixed monthly lease throughout the contract period makes your budgeting and financial planning easier. You can choose 24 months, 36 months, 48 months or 60 months for the lease period of the financing lease, during which time you also have the right to use the equipment. After the contract period, the equipment can be purchased, a new contract made and the equipment replaced with new ones, or the equipment can be returned to a location indicated by Metos.

There are always three parties in leasing financing: the customer, the seller and the financing company. As the customer, you choose the equipment for your professional kitchen and the leasing period, after which you can apply for leasing financing through us, and you will receive instructions on concluding an agreement with the financing company. As the seller, Metos AS applies for a financing decision, delivers the equipment and agrees with the customer on an extension after the end of the leasing period. Metos' financing partner is Fleischer Finans. The agreement on financing leasing is concluded between the customer and Fleischer Finans.

A leasing agreement requires a positive credit decision.

The financing service is provided by Fleischer Finans, which is part of Holst & Fleischer AS, a family company established in 1855. Fleischer uses Ikano Bank and Nordea Finans as its main banking partners.

    b. To sign, you need your personal online banking ID (Tupas identification).
  4. The equipment is delivered to the customer according to Metos Oy's General Terms of Delivery. The customer signs Tukirahoitus Oy's delivery acceptance form. When the delivery has taken place, the obligation to pay lease to Tukirahoitus begins. Lease is billed in advance every three months.
  5. After the leasing period, the following options are available:
    a. The customer can purchase the equipment from Metos Oy for a sum equivalent to three months' lease.
    b. The equipment can be exchanged for new ones, in which case the old equipment is returned to Metos, and a new leasing agreement is made for the new equipment.
