Bibby Financial Services Funds Health and Nutrition Company with $2.85 Million Credit Facility

Funding Facility Allows Growth with Provision of Working Capital

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bibby Financial Services (BFS) announces the provision of a $2.85 million credit facility comprised of a $2.2 million accounts receivable facility and a $650,000 inventory line. The new facility will provide the manufacturer of dietary supplements the working capital needed to expand production of its product.

Knowing that Americans spend a total of $60 billion on weight loss products a year¹, the funded manufacturer capitalized on market potential and created a robust customer base of retail distributors, specialty food retailers, mass-market drug stores, and infomercial and catalog marketers. Though the company has experienced strong growth since inception, recent corporate changes resulted in the need for a new financial partner. BFS was able to provide the company with a flexible lending solution, easing the stress of both the management and lender transitions.

“BFS entered a difficult funding situation with a motivated borrower, and a determined, customer-oriented team with a suite of customizable solutions that allowed us to provide the company with the working capital needed to grow,” states Barry Kastner, Bibby Financial Services North America’s Executive Vice President.
