Republic Business Credit Fuels Growth of Natural Food Company with $1,500,000 Factoring Facility
Strategic partnership expands growth opportunity for thriving natural food manufacturer.
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 16, 2025 -- A leading natural food manufacturer, known for its unwavering commitment to taste, texture and quality, sought a trusted financial partner to help realize its growth ambitions. Republic Business Credit provided a $1,500,000 factoring facility to secure the company's financial future and support the rapidly growing demand for its product.
The company faced several challenges typical of a growing small business in the natural food industry, such as managing day-to-day cash flow with major customers such as Kehe and UNFI, while preparing for large orders with regional and national grocery chains. The company's founder added, "Partnering with Republic has extended and smoothed our cashflow runway, empowering us to pursue partnerships with large retail and grocery chains to strengthen our market position."
"We are thrilled to partner with the company's founders as they continue to redefine the plant-based protein landscape, where we see immense potential," said Jason Carmona, Republic's EVP Western Manager. "It's exciting to see a company like this delivering on the promise of truly delicious and clean plant-rich foods."
Republic's market insights and trusted track record within the food and beverage sector were key factors in being chosen as the manufacturer's financing partner through a competitive bidding process. The facility provides additional availability, higher advances and more attractive pricing than competitors, a testament to Republic's strong focus on supporting emerging founders.
"The natural product market is not just a trend; it's a fundamental shift in how consumers approach food," added Robert Meyers, Republic's President. "Our goal is to empower these innovative companies by providing flexible working capital solutions. This partnership underscores our expertise in navigating the unique financial needs of the food and beverage industry, as well as our ability to structure facilities that truly enable growth and stability."
