The branded proposition, the Pink Home Loans Crystal range, is only available to Pink Premier members sending a minimum of one case a month to the packager. Pink aims to agree a number of other branded lending partnerships.
Explaining why Pink has decided to start branded lending, managing director Tony Jones, said: “We felt that with the growing strength of our brand, now is the time to design our own product.
