About Forever 8
Forever 8 Fund, LLC, was founded with the purpose of developing a unique way of funding inventory for e-commerce businesses. With a global presence, Forever 8 has approached its sector differently by developing a technology-driven capital solution focused on taking product risk directly. When considering a business for its solution, Forever 8 first determines which products qualify for inventory funding within the customer’s product portfolio, using a proprietary due-diligence tool that assesses a number of parameters including sales, supplier terms and product category risk. Once approved and on-boarded, Forever 8 then purchases the existing inventory from the customer, immediately freeing up capital for the customer to focus on growth activities such as sales, marketing and product line expansion. Going forward, Forever 8 purchases all future inventory directly from the supplier that the customer requires in order to satisfy its growth, delivering a long-term, un-capped inventory capital solution for the customer.
