The company is a U.S. subsidiary of a licensing promotional product wholesaler and distributor headquartered in the UK. The client needed additional working capital to provide liquidity that would support the business’ Stateside operations. Their biggest challenge is seasonality, as the business experiences an increase in requests for merchandise before film and video game promotions, then order requests slow down in the months after release.

BFS had been engaged with the grain hauler whose previous factoring company, located in the US, could no longer support the business once it began harvesting grain. The lender ceased funding due to unwanted risks associated with US federal agriculture regulations which require that the suppliers to a borrower are paid in full first. BFS bought out the lender and worked through multiple subordination agreements with the client’s equipment lenders. The working capital from BFS will cover the upfront costs associated with harvesting and hauling grain._x000D_
