AR Financing for Chinatown businesses

If your business runs out of Chinatown, accounts receivable financing turns the invoices you've already issued into working capital. A historic commercial district west of downtown Fresno beside the rail corridor, with produce handlers, warehouses and small wholesalers that sell to packers and grocers on seasonal payment terms.

California's wider economy runs on the nation's largest economy, from LA ports and apparel to Silicon Valley tech and Central Valley agriculture, and Chinatown feeds into that supply chain. Approval here rests on your customers' credit rather than your own balance sheet, so younger companies in Fresno qualify alongside established ones.

Everything is handled online and by phone — there's no branch to visit in Chinatown, and no requirement to pledge real estate. Facilities run from $25,000 to $25 million and grow as your invoicing grows.

How it works in Chinatown

  1. 1.Deliver and invoice. You complete the work or ship the goods and invoice your customer as usual.
  2. 2.Submit the invoice. Upload invoices through our portal. We verify them with your customer.
  3. 3.Receive your advance. We wire 80%–95% of the invoice value to your account, typically within 24 hours.
  4. 4.Get the rebate. When your customer pays, we release the remaining balance minus our fee.

Chinatown sectors

Industries we fund in Chinatown

These are the sectors most active in this neighborhood, and the ones whose customers pay on the longest terms.

Food & Beverage Distribution invoice financing

Food & Beverage Distribution

Paid in 21–45 days from grocers and foodservice

Perishable goods move fast but grocers and foodservice buyers still pay on terms, creating constant cash pressure.

Food factoring advances on grocery and foodservice invoices; PO financing can fund large seasonal buys.

  • Produce & protein purchases
  • Cold-chain logistics
  • Grocery chain orders
Food & Bev financing
Wholesale & Distribution invoice financing

Wholesale & Distribution

Paid in 30–60 days from retailers and resellers

Distributors buy inventory upfront and extend credit to retailers, squeezing cash between both ends.

A combined PO + AR facility funds supplier purchases and then advances on the resulting invoices.

  • Inventory buys
  • Supplier deposits
  • Large retail orders
Distribution financing
Trucking & Freight invoice financing

Trucking & Freight

Paid in 30–60 days from brokers and shippers

  • Fuel advances
  • Driver payroll
  • Truck repairs
