Is purchase order financing a good fit for textile & apparel manufacturing?

Yes — purchase order financing is one of the programs we most commonly place for textile & apparel manufacturing shops. Manufacturers who have a confirmed purchase order from a creditworthy buyer but need capital to buy materials or pay suppliers.

How fast can a textile & apparel manufacturing 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 textile & apparel manufacturing 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.

Can I factor invoices to Walmart, Target, Kohl's, Macy's, or Amazon?

Yes. Big-box and major e-commerce retailers are core factoring buyers. Apparel-experienced factors handle their EDI, ASN, routing, and chargeback processes as a matter of course.

How do I fund an overseas fabric or garment buy?

PO financing can open letters of credit for overseas mills and CMT (cut-make-trim) contractors, then convert to factoring once the goods ship domestically and invoices are issued.

Is PO financing more expensive than a bank line?

It typically costs more than a traditional bank line, but it's often the difference between accepting a large order or turning it down. The profit on the order usually more than covers the cost.

Why textile & apparel manufacturing shops choose purchase order financing

You bought the fabric in March for a fall program that ships in July and gets paid in November. That's the apparel cash cycle in one sentence — and it's why so many good producers run out of cash right before their best quarter.

Retail buyers on net-60 or net-90, big-box POs with punishing on-time delivery windows, seasonal ramps that need working capital months before invoicing, and cut-and-sew payroll that doesn't wait — you know the terrain.

Purchase Order Financing is one of the most direct ways to close that gap. Get the capital to fulfill large customer orders without straining cash flow.
