SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 27, 2025--

Flexport, the global leader in supply chain technology, today announced that it is partnering with funds and accounts managed by BlackRock (“BlackRock”) to provide up to $250 million in supply chain financing for its customers. The financing will be managed and executed by Flexport Capital, Flexport's financial services arm, to enable its customers to access a broader range of working capital financing options, fully integrated within Flexport’s logistics ecosystem.

Through this financing, Flexport is able to offer flexible working capital to its customers for everything from inventory and logistics finance to term loans, asset-based lines of credit, tariff financing, and more. Flexport customers can also access funding at any stage of the product lifecycle, from supplier pickup to final delivery and beyond, without the complex fees or documentation common in traditional lending.

“Global trade runs on cash flow, and too many great businesses fall behind simply because they can’t fund the gap between when they buy inventory and when they sell it. Together with BlackRock, Flexport Capital offers businesses more access to flexible capital to help them scale,” said Flexport Chief Financial Officer, Stuart Leung.

Since launching Flexport Capital in 2017, Flexport has provided more than $2 billion in financing to its customers, achieving an annualized growth rate of 71% over the past five years. Customers use this capital to keep goods moving, accelerate growth, and capture market opportunities, without tying up equity in their supply chains. This new collaboration with BlackRock will allow Flexport to expand the range and size of financial services it can deliver for those customers.
