Black Olive Capital LLC announced the launch of its intelligent inventory and purchase order lending platform. Black Olive’s mission is to provide fast and easy inventory and purchase order financing to underserved small-to-medium sized businesses (SMBs) to help them unlock capital to grow and create jobs. Its financing solutions work for businesses nationwide, and in most industries.

By utilizing Black Olive’s intelligent inventory lending platform, SMBs can dramatically increase their liquidity, and ability to scale their businesses with credit facilities that can grow and become more flexible.

Black Olive will address the SMB niche that has been underserved for years. SMBs that need $500,000 to $10 million of liquidity based on inventory or purchase orders are often overlooked by traditional and alternative financing because the large, fixed costs of traditional underwriting make economies of larger deal sizes important—creating a barrier  for smaller opportunities. Black Olive’s platform uses more efficient proprietary processes and technology to lower fixed costs and barriers and target $500,000 to $10 million opportunities.

Black Olive’s platform streamlines the application and approval process for SMB owners. SMBs will be able to utilize Black Olive’s lending platform to obtain financing in a fast, efficient and transparent way.

Carlos D. Gomez, who has significant experience in inventory, purchase order and asset-backed lending, will serve as co-founder and president of Black Olive. Mr. Gomez said, “Black Olive’s proprietary platform unlocks capital tied up in inventory and maximizes loan sizes. Through Black Olive’s purchase order financing program, we can help SMBs acquire the inventory needed to fulfill customer orders. Our proprietary processes and technology are available to most industries, ranging from e-commerce to retail to industrial.”

Black Olive’s platform was also specifically built to partner with accounts receivable (AR) factoring lenders, e-commerce lenders, asset backed lending (ABL) lenders, and traditional.
