Republic Business Credit Partners with Prominent Family Office on $2.5 Million Credit Facility

NEW ORLEANS - Aug. 11, 2026 - Republic Business Credit has partnered with a prominent family office to provide a $2.5 million receivables financing facility for its precision metal coating company. Based in the Southwest, the Company delivers specialized metal finishing, surface treatment, and chemical coating solutions to manufacturing and industrial clients across the United States. The new financing is structured to meet the Company's working capital requirements and to fuel its aggressive growth strategy, which projects accelerated sales and an expanded customer base.

Initially, the sponsor sought a financing partner capable of funding both accounts receivable and equipment. Recognizing Republic's deep expertise in the metal product manufacturing sector, the Company reached out to evaluate structuring alternatives. While Republic presented multiple options, the Company ultimately selected a receivables-only facility to capitalize on Republic's accelerated closing timeline. To support the Company's strong balance sheet, Republic has also offered the flexibility to add an equipment term loan or a capital expenditure facility in the future.

"This partnership underscores the value of strong industry connections and expertise," said Leigh Guglielmo, Senior Vice President of Business Development at Republic Business Credit. "Leveraging both allowed us to meaningfully impact the company's long-term growth potential."

As an ideal partner for family offices and private equity funds, Republic regularly provides flexible accounts receivable financing and debt capital to companies for a variety of strategic uses, including acquisitions, refinancings, and recapitalizations.

"As a wholly owned subsidiary of a bank, we provide the full toolbox to our partners while combining our strength with the heart of an independent commercial finance company," said Robert Meyers, Chief Executive Officer of Republic Business Credit. "This unique positioning allows us to structure creative solutions throughout the entire lifecycle of our clients, empowering our clients to capitalize on opportunity and exceed their growth goals."
