Sector Memo

Distribution & Logistics financing for New Orleans businesses

Distribution and logistics in New Orleans cluster along the I-10 North corridor toward Cleveland, the I-70 East corridor toward Pittsburgh, and Rickenbacker International Airport and Inland Port (Amazon, UPS, DHL, broad 3PL base) - making New Orleans the top inland cargo hub in the Gulf South. Operators here finance the same general mix as transportation, with more emphasis on warehouse equipment and racking and less on rolling stock.

AR financing or AR factoring covers the gap between large-customer payment cycles and weekly operating cost. Equipment financing handles racking, forklifts, conveyors and material-handling equipment with the gear as collateral. Revenue-based financing fits 3PLs scaling through peak season without taking on fixed monthly installments. SBA 504 fits owner-occupied warehouse real estate purchases.

Drawbridge Lending routes by customer concentration and asset base. The right lender for a 3PL with one big-box customer is different from the right lender for a freight broker with 200 active shippers, even though both are technically "distribution".
