Why the commitment pays

A better supplier — cheaper, higher quality, more reliable — is often gated behind a minimum order. Meeting it front-loads cash, but the improved terms can more than repay the effort.

Fund the minimum order

A working-capital facility covers the larger commitment, repaid as you use or sell the stock. Check the better pricing clears the finance cost on the true-cost-of-borrowing calculator.

Only commit to what you'll use

A minimum order only pays if you actually use it. Match the commitment to genuine demand so the better supplier is a saving, not a shelf full of trapped cash.

Frequently asked questions

Should I commit to a minimum order for a better supplier?

When the improved pricing or quality clearly beats the finance cost and you'll use the volume, yes. Fund the commitment with a facility and match it to genuine demand.

Can I finance a minimum-order commitment?

Yes. A working-capital facility covers the larger order, repaid as you use or sell the stock. Confirm the better supplier's terms outweigh the finance cost before committing.
