The winning of a significant new contract in the sector had resulted in a requirement to build a cashflow strategy to meet the demands of the additional project.
Meritcom has been experiencing significant growth over the past number of years and had been successful in winning a multi-million euro contract to provide sub-contracting services for a large-scale Data Centre project in Denmark for one of the world largest social media companies.
They had incorporated new trading entities in Europe to facilitate this contract in conjunction with their well-established business in Ireland and the UK. This meant identifying a funding partner who understood their business and the working capital requirements of their global operations and data centre projects. InvoiceFair’s knowledge of the sector meant they recognised the standing of Meritcom within the sector and the quality of the clients they worked with.
Meritcom were providing highly skilled workers for the Danish project for services such as power and electrical works during the build phase of the Data Centre site expansion.
Initial set up costs on the project required capital prior to the beginning of the payment cycle from the main contractor. As the project ramped up, the requirement for labour also increased as did the working capital requirements with repayments from the primary contractor operating on 30-day cycles, with staff requiring weekly payments. This created a cashflow gap.
Unable to find a suitable solution from traditional lenders, the answer was for Meritcom to use Financefair’s innovative growth funding model to leverage their purchase orders and their monthly complete worksheets for their staff in advance of payment from the contractor to assist with their working capital requirement. Using future earnings in this manner is a unique feature in the market.
Financefair structured a Purchase Order and Selective Invoice Financing Solution for Meritcom’s European business, which allowed Meritcom to access growth funding as they required it over the course of the contract.
