What we offer
Purchase Order Financing
Purchase order financing (also know as “PO financing”) is a solution businesses use to help pay their suppliers for existing orders. This type of financing allows you to meet your manufacturing demands even if you don’t have the upfront capital to do so.
This type of financing is crucial for maintaining production schedules and meeting customer demand, without straining your cash flow.
Working Capital
Working capital financing is a type of lending that allows your business to borrow money to cover your day-to-day operations such as payroll and other essential expenses.
Ideal for businesses with inconsistent cash flow, this financing ensures your operations run smoothly, allowing you to focus on growth.
Eligibility criteria
To be eligible for The Folklore Capital’s financing services, your business must:
- Be registered in one of the serviced regions: US, Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, or the UK.
- Have an existing purchase order with a third party, such as a retailer (for PO financing).
- Be able to provide financial information, including sales reports and profit and loss (P&L) statements.
