Services

An intermediary's job: lighten the load on both sides.

For the mill, sales and cash flow; for the buyer, the right product, a written specification and delivery on time. Every step in between — offer, contract, payment structure, shipment, collection and claims — is ours.

For mills

We take on the selling and the cash flow.

Financing is provided against goods, through the payment terms of a sale and purchase contract. Four basic structures; which one fits is decided together, from the mill's production schedule and cash flow.

Advance-payment orders

On a contracted order, part or all of the value is paid before production; the balance at shipment or against documents. The mill buys fibre and energy with cash in hand and has sold the run before the machine starts. Payment calendar, shipment month and tolerances sit in one contract.

  • Payment calendar in the contract
  • Bank guarantee where required
  • Turkish bank account

Payment at shipment, credit risk on us

The mill sells to Karayel Kağıt and is paid at shipment or against documents. We carry the credit-term sale to the buyer and the collection risk; the mill's balance sheet shows cash instead of a receivable. The cost of the term is stated openly in the offer.

  • Payment against documents
  • Buyer risk on us
  • Credit insurance

Raw material against finished paper

We supply the recovered paper, pulp or other raw material the mill needs; the value is offset against deliveries of finished paper at the contract price. Two-way contract, monthly account reconciliation.

  • Recovered paper · Pulp
  • Offset contract
  • Monthly reconciliation

Long-term offtake

Six-to-twelve-month purchase contracts with a monthly tonnage commitment and a price formula (index plus differential). The mill plans its capacity, and a signed offtake commitment supports the financing it arranges with its own bank.

  • Monthly quota
  • Price formula
  • Offtake commitment

How we finance — and what we are not

Karayel Kağıt is not a bank, factoring house or finance company; it does not lend or take deposits. Financing is provided against goods, through the payment terms of sale and purchase contracts. Structure, amount, tenor and security are assessed for each mill and set out in a written contract. Before the first contract both parties exchange trade-registry, tax and signatory documents; all payments go through Turkish bank accounts, against invoice.
