(Karachi, Pakistan) – Tradewind Finance, a global trade finance provider, has extended a $2 million financing facility to one of Pakistan’s leading rice exporters supplying to established food and beverage companies around the world.
Pakistan is a top-10 exporter of rice worldwide, according to the Rice Exporters Association of Pakistan (REAP). Last year, the country also saw a vast upswing in demand for this agricultural staple.
The facility announced today is delivering additional liquidity to the company, ensuring healthy cash flow and smooth operations amid modern-day trade complexities, including shipping delays. The facility is also equipping the company with the capital to meet growing demand for their grain products.
In addition, Tradewind’s bespoke trade finance package includes credit protection and collections services, which help facilitate and secure payments when selling internationally.
“Trade finance companies are usually product or market specialists, but at Tradewind, we take pride in being sector-agnostic and borderless—helping exporters grow with our factoring services beyond traditional markets and industries,” Rana Waqas, Commercial Head in Tradewind’s Pakistan office, said.
Celebrating 25 years in business in 2025, Tradewind is committed to supporting Pakistani exporters beyond textiles, with a strong focus on Agriculture, Information Technology, and other promising sectors.
