Logistics companies often pay carriers, labor and rent before customers pay, so working capital and payment-term management are central. Funding sources look at contract customers, customer concentration, equipment condition and the margin left after pass-through costs.
Common Financing Uses
- Forklifts, trucks and warehouse equipment
- Working capital to bridge customer payment terms
- Expanding into new warehouse space
- Acquiring a smaller logistics operator
Documentation Typically Requested
Customer contracts and concentration, receivables aging, an equipment schedule and monthly financials.
Illustrative Scenario
A third-party logistics firm adding warehouse space might compare added storage revenue under signed contracts with the lease and equipment costs.
