Gateway Trade Funding Provides $1.2 Million PO Financing to Security Products Company

Gateway Trade Funding announced the closing of a $1.2 million Purchase Order (PO) financing facility for a company supplying security products. 

The transaction was referred to Gateway by a factoring partner and structured to support the company’s ability to fulfill large-scale purchase orders tied to a major US big-box retailer’s rollout requirements. With significant upfront inventory commitments, the company sought a financing partner that could provide the capital necessary to execute without disrupting core operations and without drawing on operating cash flow. 

Gateway delivered a tailored PO financing solution that enabled the company to secure inventory, pay suppliers, and confidently fulfill the retailer's requirements while preserving internal liquidity. 

“We started working with Gateway Trade Funding in Fall 2024 when we needed a funding partner to support new, very large programs,” said the Security Products Company’s President/COO. “We wanted to ensure we could secure the inventory required for these launches without pulling from operating cash flow, so we could keep day-to-day operations running smoothly.” 

The President/COO added, “Gateway has been a strong partner for us - highly communicative, responsive, and flexible as our needs evolved. The biggest takeaway has been their ability to adapt quickly to our business while keeping the process clear and moving at the pace we needed. We look forward to continued partnership.” 

Gateway’s facility provides the company with the working capital needed to support ongoing production and delivery tied directly to confirmed customer demand, ensuring the company can scale efficiently while maintaining operational stability. 

“This transaction reflects exactly where purchase order financing delivers the most value - supporting companies with real demand from major retailers and providing the capital structure needed to execute,” said Mark Polinsky, Principal at Gateway Trade Funding. “We were pleased to work alongside the referring factor and structure a solution that allows them to fulfill this important program with confidence.” 

Purchase order financing enables companies to fund supplier costs associated with confirmed purchase orders, aligning financing with revenue-generating activity while preserving cash flow and avoiding unnecessary dilution or long-term debt.
