Compare financing options.
Choose the structure around the use of funds, repayment capacity, and timing. Availability and terms vary by program.
Manufacturing equipment financing
Loans and leases up to $1M, with terms up to 84 months. A down payment is required; equipment, credit, and business history affect approval.
Business line of credit
For recurring material purchases and operating gaps. Availability depends on cash flow, existing debt, and lender requirements.
Commercial invoice factoring
Eligible invoices for completed deliveries may support factoring. Customer credit, acceptance, offsets, and disputes require review.
Working capital
For short-term production needs. Compare repayment with margins, lead times, and actual collections—not just the order book.
SBA manufacturing financing
For eligible expansion, acquisitions, and fixed-asset projects. We place SBA loans with a Preferred lender desk we work with directly.

Frequently asked questions
Can I finance used manufacturing machinery?
Potentially. Age, condition, useful life, vendor, installation costs, and the business's financial profile affect eligibility. A down payment is required.
Does a purchase order qualify for invoice factoring?
A purchase order alone is not a completed receivable. Factoring usually requires an eligible invoice following delivery or accepted performance. Pre-production needs require a different financing review.
Can financing support a larger production facility?
Eligible expansion or owner-occupied property projects may support longer-term financing. Expect review of cash flow, project costs, ownership, occupancy, and your contribution; approval is not guaranteed.
