Financing for Your Retail Business

When you’re looking to get funding for your retail business, the options can seem overwhelming. Depending on your company, you could be considering bank loans, Small Business Administration (SBA) loans, merchant cash advances and business lines of credit, just to name a few.

Because of the nature of the retail industry, lines of credit are often worth seriously considering when you need funds. A good line of credit will let you borrow up to a predetermined limit whenever you need funds, letting you quickly scale to match demand or draw operating funds during slow periods. You also will usually only pay interest on what you borrow, meaning your line of credit doesn’t cost you extra when you don’t need it.

How Small Business Loans for Retail Trade Can Help Your Business

Two key parts of the retail business are maintaining inventory and riding out the slow periods. You want to stock up on inventory and working capital ahead of holiday shopping or a seasonal sale, but the proceeds won’t arrive for some time to come. Small business loans can help you cover your supply needs and provide the flexibility you need to keep up with consumer demand.

Inventory

Stock up ahead of time to meet any seasonal rush. This can be especially important for clothing and electronics retailers after Thanksgiving, or before back to school sales. Home improvement stores may need to stock up ahead of the summer season.

Expansion

Cover the cost of expanding an existing store or opening a new location and filling the space with inventory.

Cut expenses

Buying inventory in bulk can save you money by purchasing items at a discounted price.
