This Is Why You're Here
Why Chemicalss Come to Us Instead of Their Bank
Your largest chemical supplier raised minimums from $50K to $100K per order. You need the extra $50K in working capital to maintain your supply agreement and pricing tier.
A manufacturing client needs you to supply specialty solvents — $25K/month recurring. Bulk storage tanks and secondary containment cost $40K to install. The revenue justifies it but the investment is upfront.
DOT requires an upgrade to your delivery truck's chemical containment system — $18K. Without it, you lose your hazmat delivery license and 60% of your revenue.
A water treatment plant awarded you a 3-year chemical supply contract — $30K/month in recurring orders. Initial bulk tank installation and product stocking cost $75K. They pay net-45 through municipal procurement.
Your liability insurance renewal jumped from $28K to $44K because you added a new chemical class. The $16K increase is due in 30 days and you didn't budget for it. Without coverage, you can't make deliveries.
Our supplier raised minimums from $50K to $100K per order. Without the extra $50K we'd lose our pricing tier and 8% annual savings. Basecamp funded us same-day — kept our supply agreement intact and margins healthy.

Why Chemicals Businesses Choose Basecamp
Supplier Minimums Jump Without Warning
Your chemical supplier raised the minimum from $50K to $100K per order. Lose your pricing tier and it costs $45K a year in higher costs. That extra $50K in working capital literally pays for itself. We fund it same-day.
Bulk Storage Infrastructure Is Expensive
A new manufacturing client needs specialty solvents — $25K/month recurring. But you need $40K in bulk tanks and secondary containment before you can store the product. The revenue justifies it. The upfront cost is the problem.
DOT Compliance Is Your License to Operate
Your delivery truck needs an $18K containment system upgrade. Without it, you lose your hazmat license and 60% of your revenue disappears. This isn't optional. It's existential. And banks don't treat it with the urgency it deserves.
Hazmat Logistics Limit Your Lender Options
Most banks don't understand chemical distribution. They see hazmat permits and environmental liability and walk away. Our lenders have funded chemical distributors for years. They know the industry isn't risky — it's specialized.

What Chemicals Funding Actually Costs
Rates vary by credit, revenue, and time in business. These are typical ranges.
These are industry averages. Your actual rate depends on your revenue, credit profile, and time in business — it could be lower. Run your specific numbers in 30 seconds.
Calculate Your Real Cost →Chemical distribution is specialized — bulk tanks, DOT compliance, hazmat licensing. When a supplier raises minimums from $50K to $100K, losing your pricing tier costs way more than the financing. We get chemical distributors funded same-day so they keep their supply agreements.

Chemicals Business Loan FAQs
Chemical Distribution Loans & Chemical Wholesale Financing — $10K to $10M+
Chemical distribution is specialized. Bulk tanks, secondary containment, DOT-compliant trucks, hazmat licensing — the infrastructure costs alone scare off most lenders. But here's what they're missing: chemical distribution has some of the stickiest customer relationships in wholesale. Once a manufacturer locks in a solvent supplier, they don't switch over a nickel. Your contracts are recurring gold. Banks see the hazmat permits and run. We see the $25K/month recurring revenue behind them.
And the supplier minimum problem is real. Your chemical supplier raises the order minimum from $50K to $100K. Drop below the tier and you lose 8% pricing — that's $45K a year. The $50K in extra working capital costs a fraction of what you'd lose without it. We match you with 70+ lenders who fund chemical distributors. $15K compliance upgrade or a $1M inventory expansion — 60 seconds, no hard pull.
