Pacific Corp

What Pacific Corp does

Pacific Corp Ltd is a UK-registered, independent non-advisory Trade/Project Facilitation Intermediary firm, founded in 2015 and headquartered in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire (UK company number 11957796). It facilitates trade and project finance instruments — Letters of Credit, Standby Letters of Credit, Bank Guarantees, Performance Guarantees, Documentary Letters of Credit, Bank Drafts, Tender Guarantees, Advance Payment Guarantees, and SWIFT-based services (POF, RWA Messages, Pre-Advice Messages) — by connecting clients to its exclusive partner network of licensed banks, trade finance houses, and registered entities worldwide. The firm also offers complementary domestic UK services including mortgages, start-up loans, bridging loans, business loans, invoice finance, and development finance. Two Dubai-based licensed entities — Pacific PCL Commercial Broker L.L.C and Pacific Corp Trade Finance L.L.C — extend operations into the Middle East trade corridor.

The company operates a fee-for-service brokerage model: revenue is generated through brokerage service fees on facilitated instruments, with pricing not publicly disclosed and clients directed to contact the firm directly for quotes. Pacific Corp does not build or operate a proprietary technology platform; its role is intermediation and consultancy rather than balance-sheet lending. Go-to-market is consultant-led direct sales, supported by a digital presence (website, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram), an email newsletter, and a content-marketing blog of 50+ articles on trade finance topics. Distribution is augmented by an online Letter of Credit application form for inbound lead capture.

Target customers are businesses engaged in international trade and cross-border commerce, including importers/exporters, construction and infrastructure contractors, and suppliers requiring performance, tender, or advance payment guarantees. No named customer logos, funding history, revenue figures, or management team disclosures are available in the source materials — limiting visibility into financial scale, ownership concentration, and headcount specifics beyond the 11–50 employee range.
