Freight Factoring for Shaker Heights businesses

Shaker Heights sits in the Cleveland metro, and we fund companies there on the same terms as the city itself. A planned eastern suburb of professional offices and institutions, where building contractors, service firms and staffing agencies invoice schools, associations and corporate clients on monthly accounts.

Ohio's wider economy runs on steel, polymers, automotive suppliers and distribution, and Shaker Heights feeds into that supply chain. Approval here rests on your customers' credit rather than your own balance sheet, so younger companies across the Cleveland metro qualify alongside established ones.

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