“Ahern Seeds is overly impressed with FGI’s support and dedication to bringing this deal to a successful close. Throughout the process, they have remained flexible and accommodating to all the intricacies we faced. I am appreciative of their support and look forward to a long and healthy partnership.”

“Ice Industries is at a stage where we need lending partners who are willing to dig in and truly understand our business and are anxious to support our growth initiatives, and both FGI and Silverpeak proved worthy.”

“We had worked with FGI previously on another refinance within our portfolio and knew once again FGI would be able to deliver a flexible and creative working capital solution to support our investment in Martex Fiber. We found ourselves at an inflection point in the business and our incumbent lender was not able to take us to the next phase of our growth plan as part of a long-term transformation of the business. FGI took great care to learn the nuances of our global operations and provided not only a revolver and term loan to support the working capital needs but a capex line to allow us to take the final steps in a long term, strategic new product line which was essential for Martex’s future success.”

“Working with FGI was incredibly refreshing! We were able to deal directly with a decisive lender, which was exactly what we were looking for. The team was very dynamic and responsive in following our timeline and closing within 30 days. It is a welcome partnership, we see FGI as a long-term relationship and are hopeful for what the future will bring.”

“We could not be more impressed with the work that FGI has done for us. Not only were they able to navigate the complexities of multijurisdictional finance but were able to do so with creativity and complete flexibility. It was remarkable how adaptable FGI was when asked to operate in all the different entities we required. Their success has made us even more excited about the future, and we can’t wait to grow now that our groundwork has been laid”

“I am thoroughly impressed with the speed and delivery everyone at FGI operates at. Not only was our deal complicated by the simultaneous acquisition of three separate trading companies with multiple asset classes, but even more so by the nuances of doing business internationally. We needed financing from a group with a proven track record of operating in Mexico, which is where FGI came in. FGI was able to structure the deal efficiently and professionally, especially operating within our accelerated timeline of less than 4 weeks. We are incredibly impressed with FGI’s exhibition of flexibility and cultural consideration. I can assure you we will be closing more deals together in short order. Thanks again!”
