NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--White Oak Commercial Finance, LLC (White Oak), an affiliate of White Oak Global Advisors, closed a new $120 million 3-year Senior Secured Credit Facility with Sauder Woodworking, a Midwest-based manufacturer and distributor of ready-to-assemble furniture and custom manufacturing furniture solutions with operations throughout the United States and Canada, acting as Sole Arranger and Bookrunner.
The credit facility consists of a $120 million asset-based revolving line of credit funded by White Oak Commercial Finance. The borrowing base is supported by US and Canadian loan parties, and includes advances on eligible A/R, Inventory, M&E, and Real Estate.

“We have great respect for Sauder’s leadership team and are thrilled to have been able to deliver a comprehensive asset-based lending solution that will provide Sauder with the liquidity and flexibility it needs to support the positive momentum in the business,” said Tom Otte, CEO of White Oak.
“This new credit facility provides our business increased financial flexibility and capital to take advantage of our exciting growth opportunities. With White Oak’s financing support, we are well positioned to execute our strategic plan and continue to build upon the legacy of our 90 year plus operating history,” said Kevin Sauder, President and CEO of Sauder Woodworking. “White Oak has been a collaborative partner throughout the financing process, and we appreciate their strong vote of confidence and support.”
