Case Study: Kid Dangerous turns a 150-day cash crunch into a national Whole Foods rollout with Settle

Kid Dangerous bridges 150-day cash gaps with Settle

Kid Dangerous, a bold graphic apparel brand, faced a significant cash flow challenge when it secured a large national rollout with Whole Foods. The extended payment terms from big-box retailers created cash gaps of up to 150 days between paying their factory and receiving payment. Their previous method, traditional factoring, was too restrictive and was holding them back from scaling confidently. They turned to Settle for a more flexible financial solution.

By switching to Settle, Kid Dangerous gained a financial lifeline tailored to their business cycles. The solution from Settle seamlessly bridged the long cash-flow gaps, allowing them to fulfill the massive Whole Foods order spanning over 400 stores without giving up equity or control of their retailer relationships. This enabled their national launch and freed up internal resources to focus on product development and further market expansion.
