PO Financing for Grand Avenue businesses

If your business runs out of Grand Avenue, purchase order financing turns the invoices you've already issued into working capital. A dense retail and professional-office corridor running through Summit Hill, where small service firms, contractors and suppliers depend on commercial landlords, restaurants and institutional clients that pay on monthly billing cycles.

Minnesota's wider economy runs on medical devices, food companies and distribution, and Grand Avenue feeds into that supply chain. Approval here rests on your customers' credit rather than your own balance sheet, so younger companies in St. Paul qualify alongside established ones.

Everything is handled online and by phone — there's no branch to visit in Grand Avenue, 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 Grand Avenue

  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.
