BDC Capital Announces $4 Million ABL Financing for a New England Based Apparel Importer

June, 2021

BDC Capital provided a $4 million revolving asset-based line of credit to an importer of licensed and private label apparel based in New England. The privately-held company saw an increased demand for its leisure apparel during the pandemic.

Given the significant increase in volume, their existing lender provided a larger line of credit but a seasonal funding gap created a challenge. A BDC Capital revolving line of credit was customized to satisfy the seasonal borrowing requirement. The BDC credit facility is secured by a junior position on all business assets, inventory, and owner-occupied real estate.  The combination of BDC Capital and a local bank resulted in increased working capital capacity to meet the projected growth.
