$176K in inventory, funded in time to make a holiday production deadline
An e-commerce brand needed to pay an overseas manufacturer upfront to hit its holiday production cutoff, with cash still tied up in existing inventory. Here's how a $176,000 advance, funded in 5 days, made the deadline.
1. The Situation
A peak holiday production and shipping cutoff with the overseas manufacturer was approaching — miss the date, miss the season.
A large inventory production run needed to be placed and paid for ahead of Q4, but the manufacturer required payment upfront and the brand's cash was tied up in existing inventory still mid-sell-through.
2. The Funding
Outcome99 structured a $176,000 merchant cash advance at a 1.28 factor rate over a 9-month term, repaid via weekly remittance (~$5,776/week) against total repayment of $225,280.
3. The Result
The advance funded in 5 days, in time to place the production order before the manufacturer's cutoff.
