Our inventory financing solution helps you finance your materials within the supply chain, freeing up your cash flow
Inventory Financing
VENDOR MANAGED INVENTORY (VMI)
While in transit or in storage, you can delay taking ownership of stock until the point of consumption, through our unique VMI service. This optimises your level of capital and frees up cash flow for value adding activities.
PROCUREMENT
We will purchase your required stock directly from the selected manufacturer on your behalf and maintain this in our ownership. We will insure inventory on your behalf while in transit and storage.
INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
Coordinating with your head office or regional units, we will manage purchased inventory, ensuring that you have the optimal level of raw materials, component parts and finished goods stocked at your required locations at all times.
INVOICING AND PAYMENT
We will arrange payment of all associated costs including suppliers, third party logistics providers (3PLs), freight forwarders, customs duties, clearance fees and sales taxes. You will receive a single invoice only on consumption of inventory.
AGILITY & RESPONSIVENESS
Our global presence, international logistics partnerships and fast decision making processes support our ability to quickly respond to customer requirements and implement inventory financing programmes without delay.
FINANCIAL SECURITY
As a member of the DCC group, and with strong relationships with financial institutions, including credit and marine insurers, we are in a position to finance your inventory with low risk to your supply chain.
CAPITAL OPTIMISATION
By financing your materials supply chain and delivering inventory only as you need it, you move from a fixed to a variable cost structure, optimising your balance sheet and working capital.
COMPLEXITY MANAGEMENT
By dealing with a single alpha supplier, you dramatically reduce your admin burden, freeing up your time and resources to focus on business growth.
