Tradewind Finance completed a $5 million export factoring facility for a U.S.-based meat trading company with a subsidiary in Brazil.

As the company’s financial partner, Tradewind Finance provided funding to the meat trader a few days prior to shipment. The company also received credit protection from Tradewind.

Tradewind’s office in Brazil provided on-the-ground support for the company, with a local team that assisted in navigating currencies and country regulations.

“We are pleased to deliver a bespoke facility that will help enable our client expand sales to existing and new customers. Tradewind Finance’s flexibility and ability to provide funding quickly made our financing solution the right fit for the company,” Paulo Silva, country manager of Tradewind Brazil, said.

Tradewind Finance is an New York-based financial institution.
