For this brand, managing rapid growth and high demand required a reliable and cost-effective way to fund their inventory. After signing up for Kickfurther PRO, the company found the perfect solution to fuel their expansion without the drawbacks of traditional financing options.

With Kickfurther, they have successfully launched 16 Co-Ops, funding over $1,000,000 in inventory. The PRO subscription model not only provides competitive rates but also encourages more deal flow, effectively reducing their annualized rate. Compared to other financing options, Kickfurther’s speed, ease, and flexible cost structure have proven invaluable, giving the brand the freedom to scale with confidence. By tapping into Kickfurther’s unique funding platform, they’ve been able to keep up with demand and stay on top of growth, all while maintaining healthy cash flow and minimizing financial risk.

Swoveralls, a fast-growing brand blending comfort and style, needed support to fulfill a large Amazon holiday order, which would be crucial for their continued growth. Facing the typical cash flow challenges of managing production and scaling up for peak season, Swoveralls turned to Kickfurther for an innovative funding solution.

Kickfurther stepped in with the necessary capital to fund their inventory, ensuring they could fulfill the order without delay. By covering 100% of the inventory costs with flexible payment terms, Swoveralls was able to meet the holiday demand, resulting in their best year yet, with an impressive 89% growth. Thanks to Kickfurther’s funding and their community of buyers, Swoveralls reached new heights without the burden of debt or giving up equity.

Piccolina, a rapidly growing lifestyle brand, faced challenges common to CPG brands—balancing high demand with inventory availability and managing long lead times between manufacturing and revenue. To keep up with surging sales and product releases, Piccolina needed a funding solution that allowed them to scale without sacrificing cash flow, taking on debt, or giving up equity.

Kickfurther stepped in with a perfect solution, funding 100% of Piccolina’s inventory costs through 16 separate funding deals, amounting to over $1.5 million. With Kickfurther’s flexible payment terms, Piccolina was able to reinvest their capital into growth without the immediate pressure of repayments. The results were transformative:

• 10X growth in sales
• 12% increase in profit margins
• 3X rate of returning customers

Kickfurther’s non-dilutive, off-balance sheet funding empowered Piccolina to expand their product line, grow their distribution channels, and ultimately thrive in a competitive market.
