First Capital, a national commercial finance company, announced it has provided a $20,000,000 revolving line of credit to Gulf Packaging, Inc., a national distributor of packaging supplies and equipment.

“Gulf Packaging is the type of company that can benefit significantly from the lending programs First Capital provides as a privately owned non-bank lender. We were able to provide Gulf Packaging more working capital to support them in achieving their growth strategy.”

In addition to refinancing the previous lenders, proceeds were used to finance the consolidation of various affiliates that will allow Gulf to streamline operations and take advantage of larger market opportunities.

Harry R. Novak, Senior Vice President and Regional Business Development Manager for the Chicago market office stated, “Gulf Packaging is the type of company that can benefit significantly from the lending programs First Capital provides as a privately owned non-bank lender. We were able to provide Gulf Packaging more working capital to support them in achieving their growth strategy.”
