Invoice factoring
Invoice factoring is a financing tool that turns accounts receivable into cash before your customers pay. You submit invoices to a factoring company, which advances you a percentage of the invoice value right away. When your customer pays the invoice, the factoring company releases the remainder minus its fee. No loan appears on your books because you're selling an asset, not borrowing. Manufacturers along the Burnside Avenue corridor and distributors serving aerospace suppliers near Pratt & Whitney's East Hartford campus often use factoring to bridge the gap between shipping product and collecting payment.
Invoice factoring
East Hartford's economy leans on manufacturing, logistics, and aerospace suppliers. Many of those firms invoice large customers on net-60 or net-90 terms, which strains payroll and inventory budgets. Invoice factoring keeps cash flowing so you can meet Friday payroll, restock materials, and take new orders without waiting for slow-paying clients. Because Glenwood Lending is a broker, we match you with factoring companies that understand your industry and payment cycles, then negotiate terms on your behalf.
A precision-parts fabricator near Silver Lane ships components to a tier-one aerospace contractor every month. The contract specifies net-90 payment, but rent, wages, and raw aluminum don't wait three months. The owner contacts Glenwood Lending's East Hartford office and we broker a factoring agreement that advances 85 percent of each invoice within 48 hours. The shop meets payroll, orders next month's stock, and keeps the production line moving.
