Gateway Trade Funding recently funded a purchase order facility to an outdoor clothing company.

Trew Gear, known for their snow bibs and stylish outdoor clothing, was growing their business and developing a deeper relationship with one of their main customers. To bring the project to life and accept the large order, they started working with a factoring company. As the orders grew, they sought the addition of purchase order financing from Gateway Trade Funding to provide the funding for the finished goods from their supplier.

PO financing from Gateway was pivotal to their success strategy, providing them with the funds to grow their wholesale business without affecting their highly successful online efforts. It has been a win-win for Trew Gear and their wholesaler with a clear path forward into the future.

“There is a rarely found human connection to our relationship with Gateway, which is key to our success. Their deep knowledge and experience with the outdoor market make things easier and less stressful because I know that they understand our business, speak our language, and will help find a way to solve any problem that arises,” commented Chris Pew, CEO, Trew Gear.

“It is gratifying to be able to help companies like Trew Gear get access to the funds they need with purchase order financing that allows them to grow their business,” said Ned Post, Gateway Trade Funding.
