When a travel company’s business picked up dramatically post-Covid, Accord Financial Corp., one of North America’s leading independent commercial finance companies ("Accord") (TSX: ACD) moved quickly to provide the company with the liquidity they needed to manage their fast-growing business. As one of the hardest hit industries, travel had come to an almost complete halt during Covid. The company’s operating lender cut their line of credit to twenty percent of the amount authorized. When travel picked up in 2022, the original banking lender couldn’t restore the company’s higher limit.
Accord was able to offer financing at pre-pandemic levels, tailored to their cash flow needs. With $12MM of availability against accounts receivable, the company now has the confidence that as they grow and prosper, their Accord operating line will grow with them.
Accord is committed to supporting businesses in their pursuit of success and growth. While the travel industry was especially hard hit, it has shown exponential growth, and we are pleased to be able to help our client during this transition.
