Abbee Limited vacuums up success with support from Optimum Finance’s Invoice Finance solution

Abbee Limited, a pioneer of robotic cleaning solutions for commercial spaces, has partnered with Optimum Finance to secure a tailored Invoice Finance facility, which is fueling its rapid expansion and ongoing innovation in the commercial cleaning industry.

Established in the year 2024, Abbee has made its mark quick by offering high-end vacuuming robots designed for vast commercial areas such as offices, schools, and hotels. Products at Abbee are designed to function in teams, easily covering enormous areas — a perfect solution for clients who seek scalable performance with minimal human involvement.

It has landed huge contracts already, including a London investment services giant utilizing 60 robots per floor in its office skyscrapers, and a multinational oil and gas firm headquartered in the capital. These kinds of clients have a fully automated cleaning solution with round-the-clock operation and reduced supervision.

As its list of clients grows, so too is Abbee growing its product range, with the introduction of robotic floor and window cleaning systems due later in the year. With customers from Aberdeen to Madrid, the company is rapidly making its mark across the commercial cleaning sector.

To support this accelerated growth, Abbee needed a responsive funding solution to maintain cash flow and keep investing in product development. Optimum Finance's Invoice Finance facility enables the business to release funds tied up in unpaid invoices, creating essential working capital to drive further growth.

“Invoice finance allows us to access funds immediately, so we don’t have to wait for weeks or months to reinvest in production, new technology or expansion,” said Michael Richardson, founder of Abbee Limited. “It's a vital tool that ensures we can meet demand and continue to move forward.”

With long payment terms typical among its larger clients, access to liquidity has been key for Abbee’s ability to scale. The Invoice Finance solution offers quick and adaptable funding, allowing the company to maintain momentum and reinvest without delay.

“The flexibility we’ve gained with Optimum Finance supports everything from technology upgrades to international expansion,” Michael adds.

As Abbee keeps innovating, with more products in the pipeline, it remains committed to transforming how commercial spaces do big cleaning.

“We’re incredibly excited about the future,” said Michael. “And we’re just getting started. Our mission is to provide the best cleaning solutions that are scalable, efficient and innovative, and we look forward to continuing to lead the charge in this space.”

Optimum Finance CEO Anthony Persse said that the Optimum team spotted the potential of Abbee early and, in conjunction with the company, arranged a funding solution that would accommodate its ambitious growth strategy. He added: “Their forward-thinking approach to product development and their ambition in the commercial cleaning space make them a particularly exciting client to work with. By unlocking cash tied up in invoices, we’re helping Abbee stay agile and continue delivering cutting-edge solutions to their growing customer base.”
