Kickfurther.com is an inventory funding platform that helps growing brands fund faster growth by enabling larger, more cost-effective inventory production.
We connect brands to a marketplace of funding for inventory purchases or working capital while giving brands the flexibility to pay on their funding only once their new inventory begins selling. This process alleviates the cash-flow pinch that many lenders cause by requiring immediate repayments.
Kickfurther enables brands to scale quicker by addressing their largest expense (inventory) on payment terms that best suit the cash flow of a growing company.
Founded in 2014 by Sean De Clercq, Kickfurther is headquartered in Boulder, CO. The company has raised more than $80 million for growing brands and is backed by investors behind Robinhood, Tesla, Twitter and more.
