We welcome your referrals and please feel free to contact us to learn more about our commission rates.
The Company
Our client manufactures shoes that are not only stylish but also comfortable. There are several startups and established brands all competing in the comfort shoe space. As the global footwear market continues to grow, our client is focused on increasing production and their online presence. Comfortable footwear is in demand and social media marketing is key to brand recognition.
The Financial Solution
Porter Capital provided a $1.5 million line of credit to our client, ensuring steady cash flow and supporting their rapid business growth strategy. Many apparels and footwear manufacturers sell to large department stores and are on invoice payment terms often net 30 after the sale, with some hold-back for returns. Large retailers can delay payment because placement in these stores is often strategically important to suppliers. For many manufacturers, this time between invoices sent and invoices paid is lengthy and can create cash flow gaps. Porter Capital can eliminate this gap and smooth cash flow, providing opportunities to increase production and grow your company.
