Our Story

About Ruairi Creative

A specialist finance house focused on the capital needs of creative agencies, design studios and production companies across Ireland.

Finance for creative work

Ruairi Creative Limited was established to provide practical, responsive capital for creative agencies, design studios and production companies whose cash-flow often depends on project stages, client deposits and final payments.

From our base in Skibbereen we arrange short-term bridging, invoice facilities and project finance for agencies, production houses and independent creatives. Our approach is relationship-led and grounded in a clear understanding of creative project timelines and payment structures.

We work with creative businesses who value clarity, sector knowledge and reliable decision-making.
