Purchase Order and Trade Finance

Do you have purchase orders from credit-worthy customers, but lack the funds to pay for the goods to fill those orders? Is your bank unwilling to fund inventory in transit?

Purchase Order Finance, also known as trade finance, is a unique credit accommodation that allows you to purchase inventory without drawing on your bank line of credit. A purchase order finance company will advance up to 100% of your supplier PO against pre-purchased inventory, including the cost of freight and duty.

The Franklin Capital Purchase Order Finance Program provides Letters of Credit or cash against documents to foreign and domestic manufacturers for the cost of pre-sold inventory.

REDUCE YOUR RISK IN THE FACE OF GROWING GLOBALIZATION

Franklin Capital’s management team structures its Purchase Order Finance Program to help overcome the legal and financial barriers associated with international trade.

Franklin Capital expedites the issuance of Letters of Credit that most foreign manufacturers (and some domestic manufacturers) require before beginning production. Prior to shipment, Franklin Capital arranges for the inspection of goods anywhere in the world. This service ensures product quality and full compliance with your customer’s Purchase Order.

ADVANTAGES THAT PURCHASE ORDER AND TRADE FINANCE ADDS TO YOUR BANK FINANCING

Our Purchase Order and Trade Finance programs are an additional source of capital that augments traditional lending. We offer a supplement to conventional debt, which enables companies in need of credit to significantly increase their borrowing power.

How Franklin Capital’s Purchase Order and Trade Finance Programs Augment Bank Financing:

  • As opposed to banks, we are willing to provide funds for inventory in transit.
  • You can purchase inventory quickly, without drawing on your bank line of credit, to fulfill orders and achieve earnings that would not otherwise be possible.
  • Unlike banks, we do not block your bank lines for the amount of the issued Letter of Credit.
  • You can fully utilize your bank lines and still provide your manufacturers with the required Letters of Credit.
