PO Financing for Portlock businesses

An older rail and industrial district in northern Chesapeake where fabrication shops, bulk terminals and transport operators serve regional industry and bill plant buyers on extended commercial terms. National Invoice Factoring provides purchase order financing to companies operating in Portlock, advancing up to 100% of supplier costs so payroll, materials and growth aren't gated by your customers' payment terms.

Virginia's wider economy runs on federal contracting, data centers and the Port of Virginia, and Portlock feeds into that supply chain. Approval here rests on your customers' credit rather than your own balance sheet, so younger companies in Chesapeake qualify alongside established ones.

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

  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.
