Our expertise in liaising with lenders allows us to offer a range of financing options tailored to each business’s requirements. Whether a business needs capital for expansion, inventory management, or working capital, we can help secure the necessary funds.

Unlike a traditional loan, where you receive a lump sum upfront, a line of credit allows you to borrow and repay funds continuously. This revolving nature of a line of credit enables businesses to address immediate needs, manage cash flow fluctuations, and seize opportunities without disrupting their operations.
For small businesses, having a line of credit is crucial for several reasons.

  1. Firstly, it provides a safety net during lean periods when revenues may be low or irregular. With a line of credit, businesses can bridge the gap and cover expenses, ensuring continuity even when cash flow is strained.
  2. Secondly, a line of credit offers the flexibility to take advantage of growth opportunities. Whether expanding operations, purchasing inventory or investing in marketing initiatives, having access to readily available funds allows businesses to act swiftly and capitalize on favorable circumstances.
  3. Furthermore, a line of credit helps small businesses manage unexpected expenses or emergencies. From unexpected repairs to sudden market changes, having access to a line of credit ensures businesses can address unforeseen challenges without disrupting their operations or resorting to expensive alternatives.

At Equire, we have successfully assisted businesses across various industries in obtaining the line of credit they need. Let’s delve into a few success stories that highlight the benefits of business financing through our line of credit services:

Case 1: Fashion E-commerce Business Secures Funding for Inventory Purchase

In just 40 days, the fashion e-commerce business obtained the loan it needed to purchase inventory and sustain its operations.

Case 3: Pharmacy effortlessly secures a line of credit in a tough business environment

 

Pharmacies typically operate on a business model that involves ordering medicines and paying for them post-sale. This often leads to distributors securing their payments by placing liens on the pharmacy business. As a result, this poses a significant challenge for pharmacies when they attempt to secure a line of credit. The presence of multiple liens against the business often dissuades banks from offering financial support.

Equire, however, has proven to be a reliable solution for pharmacies seeking a business line of credit, even in the face of such difficulties. When approached by a pharmacy struggling to secure a line of credit, we recognized the importance of addressing the issue. We proactively engaged with all of their distributors to negotiate and convince them to subordinate their liens. By doing so, we ensured that the bank would have the first lien position, instilling a sense of security that ultimately led to the approval of the line of credit.

With Equire’s assistance, the pharmacy successfully secured a line of credit amounting to $2.1 million. The loan, classified as a business line of credit, was crucial in supporting the pharmacy’s operations during challenging times. Despite the industry-specific obstacles, Equire navigated the complexities and delivered a favorable outcome for the pharmacy.
