Scalable Working Capital for a Rapidly Expanding 3PL
$7MMNon-Notified Revolving Line of Credit
A fast-growing 3PL spun off from an established trucking and logistics company was too new for its bank, and its largest customers would not work with a factor. InterNex provided a $7MM non-notified revolving line of credit with built-in upsize potential.

The challenge
The 3PL was a newly formed spin-off from an established trucking and logistics company. Despite being less than two years old, it was growing rapidly and needed a scalable working capital line to capitalize on new opportunities and ensure a smooth operational transition from the spin-off.
Its short time in business made traditional bank financing a challenge. A factoring facility would also have been difficult to operate, because the 3PL's largest customers were unwilling to accept a factor's full notification requirement, which would have instructed them to change the payee name and remittance address from the 3PL to the factoring lender.
Why traditional financing was not a fit
Traditional banks
Short operating history without years of audited financials
Limited appetite for a newly formed spin-off, despite rapid growth
Factoring companies
Full notification requiring customers to change the payee name and remittance address
Largest customers unwilling to work with a factor
Intrusive, restrictive and costly structures
The InterNex Capital solution
InterNex recognized the pedigree of the leadership team, deeply experienced transportation executives with backgrounds in Fortune 500 companies, and the quality of the 3PL's customer base.
By focusing on the quality of its accounts receivable and the strength of its established networks, we provided a non-notified $7MM revolving line of credit that did not disrupt customer relationships. Unlike a rigid bank loan, the facility included upsize potential designed around the company's trajectory toward $100 million in revenue.
The client also integrated with Velocity, our cloud platform, gaining real-time data analytics and automated AR management that a traditional lender does not offer.

A smarter alternative
Freight brokers and 3PLs pay carriers quickly but often wait 30 to 45 days or longer for shippers to pay. A non-notified line of credit that grows with invoice volume lets a fast-growing logistics business take on new freight without asking its customers to change how they pay.
