JPMorgan Chase & Co. announced a $100 million aggregate credit facility for Archer Meat Snacks, a fast‑growing clean‑label jerky brand. The facility is intended to provide working‑capital flexibility as Archer scales its production capacity and expands its national footprint.
Archer has posted a 35.9% year‑over‑year revenue increase and a 57.7% jump in meat‑stick sales, positioning the company to exceed $500 million in sales in 2026. The credit line comes as Archer opens a second manufacturing facility in Los Angeles, which began operations in September 2025 and adds capacity for more than 36 million pounds of meat sticks annually.
JPMorgan’s decision follows the bank’s strong Q4 2025 earnings, reported on January 13 2026, and reflects its continued focus on lending to high‑growth consumer‑goods clients. The facility underscores JPMorgan’s strategy of supporting companies that are scaling rapidly and expanding into new markets.
Eugene Kang, CEO and founder of Archer, said, "This credit facility from J.P. Morgan is an important milestone for our business as we enter our next stage of growth." Rick Nogueira, region manager for Orange County & Inland Empire markets at J.P. Morgan, added, "We are proud to support Archer at such an exciting moment in its growth trajectory."
Archer’s expansion aligns with a broader trend toward clean‑label, high‑protein snacks, and the new financing positions the company to capture additional market share in a category that is growing faster than the overall snack market.
