The team at Apollo Capital in Harrogate.

Harrogate-based supercar financier Apollo Capital has been shortlisted for two major prizes at this month's prestigious Credit Strategy Car Finance Awards.

The finance broker, which specialises in the funding of luxury, classic, super and hyper cars, has won through as a finalist in both the Best Broker and Best Specialist Car Finance Provider categories.

Founded in 2020 by CEO Andy King and Managing Director, David Moss, Apollo has a strong track record of delivering specialist car funding requirements ranging from £50,000 up to multimillion pound cars, operating mainly for high net-worth private individuals, successful entrepreneurs, businesses and serial car collectors.

The Credit Strategy Car Finance Awards celebrates the UK’s top lenders and brokers, as the best of the best in the motor finance sector gather to celebrate their success.

Apollo CEO, Andy King, said:

“We are delighted and honoured to have been nominated alongside some high-quality businesses and businesspeople from within our ultra-competitive sector.

“To actually be nominated twice is something very special indeed and validates the hard work and quality service that we look to provide on a daily basis to all of our clients.”

The dual nomination comes in a month which also sees Apollo Capital nominated for a top award at the Harrogate Advertiser Business Excellence Awards on May 23rd.

This year’s Car Finance Awards, which will see a total of 17 trophies up for grabs, will take place on Sunday 15th May at The Monastery in Manchester.

Among the panel of 10 industry-leading judges were Marsh Finance chief executive Andrew Marsh, Borderway Finance’s managing director Mike Deans and Oodle Car Finance founder Phillip Williams.
