Deal Drawdown - Supplier Finance

Writer's picture: KeySMEKeySME

The autumn leaves are falling and this typically coincides with many SMEs ramping up for the busy festive season ahead šŸ


Retailers and distributors in particular, may feel the squeeze as they bring in additional stock to service the uplift in demand for their products. This in turn can put pressure on cashflow and stretch working capital - Sound familiar?


Well, fear not! To give businesses a cash boost, a number of finance options are currently available including supplier finance and stock finance - Two innovative funding tools with the former being particularly useful for those importing goods from overseas šŸš¢


In this space, we're pleased to share our recent support for a client based on the Fylde Coast with a Ā£300,000 supplier finance facility to fund a range of goods coming in from India and China šŸ’·


A growing B2C operator, our client sells various eco-friendly children's gifts and toys, under their own brand, to UK consumers and a wide-range of international markets šŸŒŽ


Looking to better a similar, legacy facility with punitive fees and restrictive limits, the client engaged KeySME Business Finance to help structure a solution more suited to their needs šŸ˜


Working with a specialist lender, we tailored a facility that included a flexible limit to accommodate further growth and crucially, reduced funding costs by 33% - A fantastic outcome for the client and their bottom line!


This is a neat solution where the lender will pay approved suppliers directly, in their local currency, with finance extended to the borrower over 180 days. This means goods can be shipped, stored and sold before repayment is due. Essentially, the reverse of invoice finance, funding trade creditors as opposed to trade debtors šŸ’”


If your business is feeling the squeeze, and you'd like to explore options to boost your cashflow, why not get in touch to see how supplier finance can help #UnlockYourPotential šŸ”‘
