Do you place funding for co-packing & private label operations in Appleton, WI?

Yes. Financing for co-packers and private-label manufacturers producing for national brands, retailers, and DTC challengers. We work with Appleton-area operators in this sub-niche regularly and place the file with a funding partner already active in the Great Lakes.

What documents will a Appleton co-packing & private label operation need?

The same core package every underwriter asks for in this sub-niche — see the requirements section on this page. Nothing on that list changes because you're in Wisconsin; state-specific licensing or registration items are the only local additions.

How fast can funding close for a Appleton shop?

It depends on the structure. Working capital and equipment files typically move in days to a couple of weeks; asset-based lines and SBA files take longer. Document turnaround on your side is almost always the gate, not underwriting.

Are there fees to work with Manufactor Finance?

No application, origination, or closing fees to you. We're a US-based business consulting and referral service — funding partners compensate us only after you actually receive funds.

Do factors care whether we're the brand owner or the co-packer?

They care about who is on the invoice. As a co-packer, your customer is the brand owner and that receivable factors cleanly as long as the brand owner is a legitimate commercial buyer. Terms are typically comparable to any B2B factoring line.

Can PO financing cover a first-time production run for a new brand?

Yes, if the end-buyer PO (from the retailer to the brand owner, then from the brand owner to you) is verifiable. First-time runs go through extra diligence on both the brand owner and the retail buyer.

One brand owner is 60% of our volume — is that a problem?

It's usually a cap, not a disqualifier. Advance rates may drop or a concentration limit may apply. A signed multi-year MSA, purchase commitments, or diversification plan usually recovers most of the advance.

You run co-packing & private label work in Appleton, WI. It's a specific corner of food & beverage manufacturing — and the funding file looks nothing like a generic small-business loan application.

You're running someone else's brand on your line. You buy the ingredients, buy the labels, buy the corrugate, pay the operators, ship the pallets — then wait 30, 45, or 60 days for the brand owner to pay while you're already running the next SKU for the next customer.

Locally, that plays out against Kimberly-Clark, Appvion, and Bemis / Amcor and terms of net-45 to net-75. We already know which funding partners underwrite co-packing & private label files and which of them are active in the Great Lakes — that's what makes the placement faster.

What underwriters ask Appleton co-packing & private label operators for

Executed co-packing / MSA agreements with each brand owner
Underwriters need to confirm you're an independent contractor, not a subsidiary, and that the brand owner is the obligated payor on invoices — not a passthrough.
Aged AR by brand owner
Concentration matters. A single brand owner over ~50% of receivables usually caps advance rate rather than kills the deal.
Ingredient and packaging supplier list (for PO financing)
For PO financing on a new SKU, expect to submit the supplier POs, quantities, delivery windows, and payment terms. Suppliers must accept payment by wire or ACH from the PO finance company.
Trailing 12-month financials and production reports
Interim P&L, balance sheet, and a production summary by brand owner. Tolling vs full turnkey production is broken out because margins are structurally different.
