“GE Capital brought extensive industry knowledge and creative structuring concepts to the deal,” says Steve Nadelman, president and COO of Acme Lift Co. “Their deep understanding of our business model enabled them to deliver a financing solution that will help build our business.”

“We’re committed to providing capital and market insight to our customers,” says Bob McCarrick, COO, lending for GE Capital, Corporate Finance. “Leveraging GE’s insight and industry experience in the rental equipment marketplace allowed us to develop tailored financing options that support the growth of mid-size businesses.”
