TradeCap Partners Funds $9.2 Million Production PO Facility to Ready-to-Eat Food Manufacturer

TradeCap Partners recently provided a $9.2 million production purchase order financing facility to a ready-to-eat food manufacturer. The company’s bank was unable to accommodate the scale of the immediate funding need and introduced TradeCap as an alternative capital partner.

The facility is being used to fund domestic and international supplier payments, including costs related to goods, freight, duties, logistics, and direct labor, enabling the company to fulfill a large disaster-relief order from the State of Florida.

Based in the Southeast, the company had historically relied on its bank line of credit to support operations. However, the nature of the new state contract exceeded both the available credit capacity and balance-sheet support. Longer production lead times and supplier credit limitations created a significant working capital gap that required a fast, structured solution.

TradeCap underwrote the company’s production and supply chain, secured supplier payment arrangements, and negotiated an intercreditor agreement with the senior lender—executing quickly to ensure production and delivery timelines were met.
