Why the trade fits
The Bhadohi and Mirzapur belt is India’s hand-knotted and tufted carpet capital, producing to order for exporters and appointed distributors on long, dated cycles. Units fund wool, dyeing and months of weaving before an export order pays, so working capital is tied up across a slow production chain. Credit sized to confirmed orders funds that chain stage by stage.
How the safeguards apply here
Purpose-tied disbursal pays the wool or input supplier directly against the order, keeping capital on material. Delivery confirmation ties each drawdown to a shipped carpet order and short cycles keep exposure current across a long book.
