For businesses that rely on physical products, a significant amount of capital is often tied up in inventory sitting on shelves or in warehouses. What if your stock could actively generate cash flow when you need it most?
An Inventory Line of Credit offers a flexible way to leverage your existing stock for immediate funds, transforming dormant inventory into accessible working capital that can fuel your business operations and growth.
What is an Inventory Line of Credit? A Clear Definition
An Inventory Line of Credit is a revolving credit facility secured by your business's unsold inventory. It allows you to borrow against the value of your current stock, providing immediate working capital. As your inventory levels fluctuate, so does your available line of credit.
Imagine your warehouse full of products acting like a bank vault, releasing funds whenever you need them for operations or growth, while your inventory continues to serve its primary purpose of generating sales.
How an Inventory Line of Credit Works
Understanding the key characteristics of Inventory Lines of Credit helps you evaluate whether this financing solution aligns with your business model:
Collateralized by Inventory: Your eligible, current inventory serves as the collateral for the line of credit, providing security for the lender while unlocking capital for your business.
Revolving Access: Similar to other lines of credit, as you sell inventory and repay the line, your available credit replenishes. This allows for continuous access to funds as new stock comes in, creating a dynamic financing solution.
Financing Percentage: You can typically finance up to 85% of your inventory's liquidation value, maximizing the capital available from your existing stock.
Facility Size: National Business Capital offers facilities from $100,000 up to $10,000,000, accommodating businesses with varying inventory volumes.
Competitive Rates: Rates start at Prime + 2%, providing cost-effective access to working capital secured by your assets.
Fast Funding: Application to funding can be completed in 7+ days, ensuring rapid access to the capital you need.
Qualification Requirements: Generally requires 1 year in business, no minimum FICO score, $1 Million+ in annual sales, and at least $1 Million in current inventory.
Who Needs an Inventory Line of Credit?
Inventory Lines of Credit are particularly valuable for specific business types and operational scenarios:
Product-Based Businesses: Particularly those in ECommerce, Wholesale/Distribution, and Manufacturing that maintain substantial inventory levels.
Seasonal Businesses: Companies needing to purchase large amounts of inventory ahead of peak seasons without depleting cash reserves or limiting operational flexibility.
Growing Companies: Businesses needing capital to fulfill larger orders, expand product lines, or take advantage of bulk purchasing opportunities.
Supply Chain Managers: Companies that need to ensure consistent stock levels and capitalize on volume discounts from suppliers.
Industry Focus: Technology and Medical & Healthcare are also top industries for this type of funding, alongside traditional product-based sectors.
Key Benefits of an Inventory Line of Credit
Unlocks Capital: Converts dormant inventory into usable cash flow, maximizing the productivity of your existing assets.
Flexible & Revolving: Adapts to your inventory levels, providing continuous access to funds as your stock fluctuates with business cycles.
Scalable: Grows with your inventory and sales volume, providing more capital as your business expands.
Supports Growth: Allows for larger inventory purchases to meet demand, seize opportunities, and maintain competitive advantage.
Preserves Other Credit Lines: Keeps other credit facilities open for different business needs, maintaining financial flexibility.
