INVENTORY FINANCING TO ACCELERATE YOUR GROWTH

If you've talked with me at all recently you know that I'm a huge fan of alternative financing for growing your CPG businesses. VCs are no longer investing in food unless you're in alt-meat/seafood these days. 

So how are you supposed to get money to grow? Gourmet Growth is an awesome company that will finance your inventory to help you free up cashflow and focus on growth. They work with food and beverage brands doing $10,000+ per month who produce with a co-manufacturer. 

THIS IS DEFINITELY AN OPPORUNITY YOU SHOULD TAKE.
