Purchase Order Financing

As ELPE Finance Limited, we shall provide capital to pay suppliers upfront for verified orders. Small business entrepreneurs can avoid depleting their cash reverses or decline an order because of cash flow challenges. This financing will allow companies to accept unusually large orders and adjust the loan basis up/down quickly to meet needs.

Major Clients

Our clients range from suppliers to Government institutions, Schools, Hospitals and Road Constructors among others. On the Copperbelt, we are able to meet clients whose orders are obtained from the mines such as Mopani, Konkola Copper Mines, First Quantum Minerals, Kansanshi Mine and Chambeshi Metals. We are able to serve you efficiently with our world class interdisciplinary team of engineers and accountants.

Whether a startup or an established business, we'll listen to their story and work our program to meet their needs. Unlike other Lending Financial Institutions, we shall fund an entrepreneurs' transaction within a period of 5 working days

How Does It Work

A business/Supplier receives a large purchasing order from a new or existing customer. The supplier needs upfront payment, but the customer invoice won't be paid for 30-90 days after goods are received. This creates a classic working capital gap. Without the money, the business risks losing the order and customer confidence. To source for the money, many clients have come to us and applied for traditional financing but they cannot satisfy the requirement of having a collateral. Sometimes even if they do meet this requirement, we may base our lending on a business's past performance which may not look so good, thereby imparting negatively on the success of their loan application. But with a verified purchase order, we can finance the order and satisfy all the requirements.

ELPE Finance management has gained an average of over 10 years hands on experience and an expansive network throughout the country. Our order finance service is backed by strong relationships with key decision makers around, focused private firms as well as other numerous investors.

How much will it Cost

The cost of financing purchase orders varies for each transaction. As an institution, we will strive to reduce these costs to the minimum so that we encourage growth of the entrepreneurs. What is most important is measuring the cost against the risks and benefits. If a business/supplier declines an order, how will this reflect on the company's growth?
