Is asset-based lending (abl) a good fit for cosmetics & personal care?

Yes — asset-based lending (abl) is one of the programs we most commonly place for cosmetics & personal care shops. Established manufacturers with meaningful receivables, inventory, and/or equipment who want a flexible revolving line.

How fast can a cosmetics & personal care shop get funded?

It depends on the program. Factoring often funds within days of account setup; equipment and working capital usually run days to a couple of weeks; SBA and larger term loans take longer. We tell you the real timeline up front.

Do you charge cosmetics & personal care manufacturers any fees?

No. We are a business consulting service and are not paid by you. Our funding partners compensate us only after a referred manufacturer actually receives their funds.

Do I have to give up equity?

No. Every program we place is non-dilutive. You keep 100% ownership of your shop.

Do you fund contract manufacturers for beauty and personal care brands?

Yes. Contract manufacturers and private-label producers factor their brand-owner receivables constantly. Underwriting focuses on the brand owner's credit and the cleanliness of your billing.

Can I fund a large launch order from Ulta, Sephora, Target, or Amazon?

That's exactly what PO financing plus factoring is built for. PO financing pays your component and raw material suppliers so you can produce and ship, then factoring bridges the retailer or brand invoice until they pay.

How is ABL different from factoring?

ABL is a revolving line you draw against; factoring is the outright sale of specific invoices. ABL usually has lower cost of capital but stricter eligibility and monthly reporting requirements.

Why cosmetics & personal care shops choose asset-based lending (abl)

You're formulating, filling, and labeling for beauty brands who sell into Ulta, Sephora, Target, Amazon, and QVC — all of whom pay when they feel like it. Meanwhile your surfactant, fragrance, glass, and pump suppliers want their money now.

New launches make it worse: brand owners want tight lead times on 100K-unit runs, so you're buying components and paying for stability testing months before the first invoice goes out. And chargebacks for MCB, quality, and compliance quietly nibble the advance.

Asset-Based Lending (ABL) is one of the most direct ways to close that gap. Revolving lines secured by receivables, inventory, and equipment.
