Who we fund

Financing for construction materials suppliers

Small contractors buy cement, steel and lumber on terms, often against a project or a post-dated check. Fund the big orders and turn their PDCs into cash.

We're built for established businesses (typically ₱6M+ in annual sales), with financing from ₱30,000 to ₱10,000,000.

Where your cash gets stuck

What ties up cash for construction materials suppliers

  • Small contractors buy cement, steel and lumber on terms, often against a project.
  • Payment usually comes as post-dated checks that clear weeks or months later.
  • A new project can mean one order bigger than your usual month.
  • Check rediscounting turns PDCs into cash now; PO financing funds the big order.
