PO Financing for New Orleans East businesses

If your business runs out of New Orleans East, purchase order financing turns the invoices you've already issued into working capital. The industrial and aerospace zone in the city's far east, built around a large federal assembly facility and surrounding manufacturing and logistics sites whose government and prime-contractor invoices clear slowly.

Louisiana's wider economy runs on petrochemicals, Gulf ports and industrial construction, and New Orleans East feeds into that supply chain. Approval here rests on your customers' credit rather than your own balance sheet, so younger companies in New Orleans qualify alongside established ones.

Everything is handled online and by phone — there's no branch to visit in New Orleans East, 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 New Orleans East

  1. 1.Win the order. You receive a purchase order from a creditworthy commercial or government customer.
  2. 2.We pay your supplier. We issue payment or a letter of credit directly to your supplier for up to 100% of the cost.
  3. 3.Goods are delivered. Your supplier ships to your customer, and you invoice upon delivery.
  4. 4.Settle and keep the margin. Your customer pays, we deduct our fees, and you keep the profit.
