Expanding into the U.S. is a huge opportunity for Canadian CPG brands, but the jump in order size, production cost, and retailer terms can create serious cash-flow pressure. PO Funding solves that by letting you take on larger U.S. retail purchase orders without needing to raise capital or stretch your operations.
Why Canadian Brands Use PO Funding When Entering the U.S.
U.S. retailers buy at scale. A first PO from Target, Whole Foods, or Walmart can be 3–10x larger than typical Canadian orders. At the same time, payment terms can stretch past 30, 60, or even 90 days.
PO Funding bridges that gap by covering the cost of production and fulfillment before the retailer pays you.
How It Works
- You receive a U.S. retail PO.
- We advance the capital needed to produce and ship the order.
- You deliver to the retailer.
- The retailer pays on standard terms.
- We collect repayment, and the remaining margin goes straight to you.
It’s simple, fast, and built for brands scaling into bigger markets.
What PO Funding Covers
- Manufacturing and packaging
- Inventory and components
- Freight, customs, and logistics into the U.S.
- Compliance, certifications, and labeling
- Cash needed to accept bigger orders right away

Bottom Line
U.S. expansion can unlock your next stage of growth — but only if you have the capital to fulfill larger orders. PO Funding gives Canadian brands the cash flow they need to scale into the U.S. quickly, confidently, and without giving up ownership.
