Services Provided

CDF provides services to manufacturers and distributors who seek financing to assist sales growth for their dealers and other resellers in Ireland. CDF uses a model where vendors sell goods to CDF, who then sells to dealers and resellers and retains ownership of the goods until paid by the dealer.

Services are currently provided for vendor companies located outside of Ireland selling to dealers and resellers or for vendors located within Ireland.

Programs offered may include scheduled payment plans (SPP) consistent with vendor terms, pay-as-sold plans (PAS), or customized programs designed to help vendors increase sales using finance terms as a sales tool. Formula Based Financing (secured on assets) and Accounts Receivable Financing (confidential invoice discounting) facilities are also offered in serviced industries.

Supplier Agreement

CDF requires a Supplier Agreement with the vendor (manufacturer or distributor). Once the Supplier Agreement has been signed, the vendor provides CDF with a listing of target dealers. CDF contacts each dealer, makes a credit decision, and enters into an agreement with dealers who qualify for CDF credit lines.

Industries Served

CDF currently provides extensive financial services for resellers of technology products (personal computers, telecommunications & networking equipment), motorcycles, boats and engines, caravans, and industrial & construction equipment products.
