Distribution businesses · funding preparation
Your operating calendar
Gross order value is different from the cash tied up in an order. Deduct deposits and consider returns or customer payment terms when estimating the amount that needs funding.
Possible uses
Business expenses to describe
Inventory purchasing
Minimum orders and supplier deposits can create a large upfront commitment. Use confirmed customer demand and stock already held when defining the purchase.
Handling equipment
Packing stations, pallet equipment and loading aids can support a change in order volume. Include setup costs and the space needed to use them.
Operating expenses
Freight, warehouse labor and supplier balances may come due on different dates. Break the request into those obligations and identify expected customer payment dates.
A few things to know
About this referral service
Information sharing and referral payments
We may sell the business and contact details in your application to up to five funding partners for follow-up about financing. Our payment is for the referral rather than a funded outcome, and applying does not incur a fee from this service.
Approval and available terms
We cannot promise approval, a financing amount or particular terms from an application. Those decisions belong to the provider after its own review.
Provider timing
Include the real payment deadline in the request without assuming it will be met. Availability follows the provider’s decision and completion of its requirements.
Contact consent and mobile verification
Before sending your details, check the consent wording for calls, texts and information sharing. The code sent to your mobile is used to confirm access to that number.
