Business finance
Financing for Clothing Manufacturers
Clothing manufacturing finance is about machinery, fabric and seasonal working capital. Industrial sewing and cutting machines, embroidery or printing equipment, or a large fabric and trim buy for the coming season can reach the ~$60,000 mark and beyond. Because you fund materials and labour ahead of shipping, a working-capital line bridges the gap so you can commit to a season's order without draining cash or turning the work away.
Common questions
Clothing Manufacturers — business loan questions
Can finance cover a season's fabric buy?
Yes. A working-capital or trade facility funds fabric, trims and labour ahead of production, so you can commit to a season's order before the brand or retailer pays. Cockatoo helps match you to a lender that understands seasonal manufacturing.
Can I finance industrial machines?
Often yes. Sewing, cutting, embroidery and printing equipment suit equipment finance, letting you spread the cost. Showing your repeat order book usually strengthens the application.
