Bicycles & Parts Financing
Bicycle and parts manufacturers buy steel, aluminum, carbon, and components in volume, build to seasonal retail demand, and ship to retailers and distributors on extended terms. Factoring and PO financing keep the lines running through payment gaps.
You're building bikes, frames, or components against a seasonal retail calendar. Steel, aluminum, carbon, and components are bought in volume, and your retailer and distributor customers pay 45–90 days after shipment.
Spring and summer demand front-loads material and labor cost while receivables lag, and one big-box or specialty retailer can dominate your book.
We match bicycle and parts manufacturers to factoring against retailer receivables, PO financing on material buys, and equipment loans for the next welder, jig, or assembly cell.

What underwriters will actually ask for

Steel, aluminum, and component supplier list (for PO financing)
