Meet our team
Committed to delivering success and earning your trust with no surprises.
The Far West Philosophy
Far West Capital is in the business of funding the goals of high-growth small business owners. Since 2007, our highly experienced entrepreneurial leadership team has helped over 350 businesses grow and thrive – many of whom don’t fit in a traditional bank’s “box.”
We are not algorithm lenders or spreadsheet decision makers. We are partners in our clients’ ultimate success – what’s good for them is good for us. We build personal, proactive relationships and support our clients’ deals with the hard questions to eliminate surprises and ensure their success.
Through purchasing or lending on accounts receivable, inventory or purchase orders, our clients receive custom finance and business solutions that specifically meet the personal and professional goals of their businesses and in return, are able to unleash more potential for themselves, their families and their employees.
