Scaling smarter
How Clever Foods & Supplements met growing consumer demand.
Clever Foods & Supplements is a fast-growing health and wellness brand. However, rapid growth brought increasing pressure on working capital.
To stay ahead of competitors and meet customer demand, the team needed a financing solution that could scale alongside the business.
THE CHALLENGE
With rapidly increasing demand, Clever Foods & Supplements recognized that their existing financing provider was reaching its limits in terms of capacity and flexibility.
“We wanted to expand by adding two additional production lines and needed a solution that could grow with us, provide competitive pricing, and allow us to move quickly on new business opportunities,” said Ricardo Villarreal, CEO.
We chose eCapital because they offered a stronger overall package — competitive pricing, favorable terms, and a facility large enough to support our plans”

THE SOLUTION
eCapital initially provided a $12MM A/R financing facility. As demand grew and production expanded, the facility scaled to $15MM, providing the capital needed to continue growing without delay.
In addition to funding, eCapital provided onboarding support and access to a user-friendly financing platform. “Their platform has made a big difference. It’s easy to use and gives us real-time visibility into our invoices and available funding,” added Villarreal
THE RESULTS
“The increased facility has played a key role in our continued growth. It enabled us to launch a fifth production line, which allows us to fulfill more orders, respond faster to customer demand, and take on new business with confidence,” said Villarreal.
Beyond the funding itself, the company valued eCapital’s partnership approach.
“Our experience with eCapital has been excellent. Their team is not only responsive and knowledgeable, but also proactive and solutions oriented,” Villarreal noted
